[QUOTE="navieko, post: 501053, member: 988"] WOW thanks Greenhornet_au!! That's definitely by far the closest match we have, and undoubtedly proves what I have is indeed a part of a cigarette hold -- and more than likely made by (or at least inspired by) the Dunhill "Topedo" range. I've done some browsing in google images with the search "Dunhill Torpedo Cigarette Holder" and there are a lot of close matches, though the slight difference being that mine tapers down to a point and then the small neck extends out at a consistent diameter... whereas the Dunhill Torpedos taper down right to the tip. Perhaps mine was an early prototype, or a cheap copy? :) [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/988/1563325011_dunhill-torpedo-art-deco-vintage_360_ff72d4bf104b12b99c80b8f366b610fb.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
