Childhood memory

This belonged to my grandma and I've just found it whilst clearing the loft of my parents house before hopefully handing over the keys to a new owner in the next week or two.

What is such a coincidence is that I was thinking of this very object just a couple of weeks ago the memory prompted by some research into the family history. Almost as big a coincidence as my solicitor having just picked up my file to work on when i called for an update on progress of the sale!
