Hammered pewter personal salt shaker.

This brass toothpick holder or match safe likely dates to the mid-20th century, possibly from Brazil based on similar examples. These small cylindrical containers with pointed lids were designed to keep toothpicks or matches clean, dry, and readily accessible for use at the dining table or in smoking rooms. Brass toothpick holders became popular household accessories in middle-class homes during the mid-20th century, particularly in South America. Collectors of vintage tableware and smoking accessories prize these items for their practical design, durability, and the warm patina that develops on the brass surface over time.
