    This looks never worn. It appears to be a decent quality but I cannot figure out the age on this. I tried searching bullet cabs and other key words but I don’t come up with anything like it. All glass stones

    What are your thoughts? Thank you

    My vote is for older (as in vintage). 1950s plus or minus I would think.

    It's unusual with those large dome cabs. Can't say I've seen similar but the construction sure looks vintage.

    It has me super stumped. I think it’s gorgeous also. I’ve searched bullet cabs and zippo. Can’t think of other search terms to use It looks like it has a decent quality to it. I swear it’s never been worn

    Is my lighting too bright now? I changed to daylight 6000k cause my other lighting cast too much yellow

    I think 1960s or so, and I think the blue stones are called Bullet Cabs. Very nice!!!

    Haha. I used to have Garfield pencils in the 80’s. I swear I saw one in my parents junk drawer not too long ago. So funny that it’s been in there for over 30 years. Don’t think I ever had a matching ruler.

    I don't think it's as old as it wants to be. The silvertone looks like what they do now, and the bullet cabs don't look like the old ones. It just doesn't read "old". It reads like Eisenberg Ice - modern pieces made to kinda-sorta look like the old ones, but with goofball $$$ price tags when new.
