<p>[QUOTE="cxgirl, post: 12951627, member: 63"]Hi folks, 2 Birks sterling pieces that have the same trim around them, so I assume they were part of a set (but maybe not). The coaster thing (that is what I've used it for) I've had for years, the urn I picked up a little while ago. The urn is just under 3"H and has the date letter for 1943, the coaster is 3 1/4" across. While toothpicks will fit in the urn, I think it is a cigarette holder, (they also fit inside) but what would the coaster thing be then? Not an ashtray as it has no indents for a cigarette, I can't see matches laying on it and there is no striker on it, but maybe? Or maybe I'm overthinking this and they don't go together, lol.</p><p>any information appreciated</p><p>thanks for looking<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]557399[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]557400[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]557401[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]557402[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]557403[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]557404[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
