    Hello everyone,

    This is a filigree or twisted wire holder for something. It's stamped on the bottom with what looks like Chinese characters. Have you seen something like this? I wonder if there was a glass insert to use as a bud vase? Or is it a lipstick holder or pen or brush holder? It stands only 2" high. Any chinesefiligree.JPG chinesefiligreec.JPG thoughts appreciated. Thanks.

    Lipstick? Lipstick comes/came in tubes and this looks about right.

    Lipstick. Late '50s, or '60s.
