    Need some help I have searched and could not find a similar set nor identify the end figure. This set appears to be a ladies set judging by the diminutive size, not sure if they are cigarette holder or pipes

      What you have appears to be a set of cheroot holders, not a ladie's collection. It is a little difficult to tell, because I can't see the bowls, but, ladie's pipes usually were less masculine than this. Most of them were ornate, with a more cloissonae appearance.

      Hi There
      MYSTERY SOLVED
      These are three characters from Faust (Charles Gounod) opera and are Faust Marguerite & Mephistopheles I have come across this set before so at least you now know who they are.
