HI
What is this piece? The box is hallmarked for Goldsmiths & Silversmiths London 1904 & opens up to reveal two foldable handles on the left & a plated insert on the right which is marked E.P PARIS which unscrews to unveil two white chalk-like pieces.
THANK YOU

A portable heater for a curling iron.
Re: WHAT IS THIS INTERESTING BOX?
Many thanks for that. Why was chalk used instead of cloth wick?
Re: WHAT IS THIS INTERESTING BOX?
Probably the wicks are made of asbestos, which lasted more.
