A charming ruby flash souvenir glass coal shuttle match holder from the Victorian era.  With the scheme of decorating with candles today, both inside the house, as well as outdoors, this little gem would hold those matches near at hand for quick lighting. 

What a conversation piece, too, especially should you be from Wisconsin or familiar with Princeton, Wisconsin....back in the day, the A, Fishkin's Store, which is printed on the glass  Definitely a treasure for someone and a nice souvenir piece.

This antique is 2-1/" tall, at the front of the scoop.  2" tall at center back.  4" long from the back edge to the front edge of the scoop.  2" diameter across the round base.  Original wire bail.

Condition of the red flashing is good as sometimes there are scratch marks.  At the top edge of the scoop area, a small chip on either corner and around the back curve some roughness of the edge.  I am incline to think this roughness is just in the manufacture. 

So decorate your table with a nifty piece of the past.
