Description:

I was unable to make out a makers mark but the bottom does have something that tells the date of manufacture. Diamond marks were printed, engraved or otherwise marked on an object to authenticate its copyright registration and add a layer of protection against fraud. Diamond marks were only in use between 1842 and 1883 and only for objects registered under the terms of the 1842 Ornamental Designs Act. For example the mark on the bottom of this match holder has III as the class number which is Glass. Under that is a 4, the day of the month. A 'D' on the right of the diamond which is the year 1878, a 'K' on the bottom of the diamond which is the month - November. The number on the left is a bundle number - 10.
