I am working as a docent at the Michigan History Museum. Heavy snow storm has kept most school groups from coming so I am just sitting. So who can idenify these item that are on display? One I am not sure of.

I am tempted to guess a pocket shrine, but most I have seen use a case like the match safe and none have contents wrapped in paper or cloth.
 
I haven't seen a candle safe that I can remember. I guess I should go back to those collectors encyclopedias and do some browsing.
