matching antique english travel inkwell vesta in crocodile alligator c1890

Description

It's been a long time since I have had a pair of these in such immaculate condition, they can only be described as mint condition.
The travelling duo are both covered in a good glossy cognac coloured Crocodile or Alligator skin, silver embossed to the top "Ink" and "Light".
Both are opened at the side with a concealed button which when pushed releases the lids. The inkwell reveals a glass ink chamber within and the Light reveals a metal lined interior with a strike which lifts to the chamber where the matches or Vestas would have been stored.
Dating to the late Victorian era, around 1890, each measures 1 3/4" tall x 1 5/8" wide and 3/4" deep.
