Popularized in the 19th and early 20th centuries, a Vesta case is a portable pocket safe designed to keep early "friction matches" completely dry and protected. The textured panel on the bottom allowed the user to strike a light anywhere while on the move. Does the lid snap shut securely? Yes! The traditional internal leaf-spring mechanism has been inspected, and the lid snaps shut tightly to maintain a dust-free interior, exactly as intended by its original design. How will my item be packed for shipment? Every antique and pocket collectable we sell is wrapped securely in multiple layers of shock-absorbent packaging and placed inside a rigid container. This ensures its historic cosmetic condition is completely preserved during transit. Shipping Information Carrier: Royal Mail used primarily for safe, secure delivery.
