An intriguing 3.5cm X 3.8cm (diameter) metal pocket container (similar to a pill-box), with screw-top that reveals a smaller round chamber inside - once again, with round screw-top lid. Made in England, and designed to hold holy water for use in administrating the Catholic Last Rites in the field, and/or in other emergency circumstances. With Maltese-type cross engraved on top of both outer and inner lids, "Made in England / DIADEM" punche into bottom, and "O.I." engraved side of inner chamber. An unusual artifact of the Catholic Church
