Antique Brass Boxes

This lot comprises two antique brass boxes. One is a rectangular cigarette case, likely dating from the early 20th century, featuring embossed detailing. The second is a smaller, circular snuff box, also crafted from brass, with a hinged lid and intricate floral patterns. Both boxes exhibit the craftsmanship typical of the period, intended for personal use and reflecting the aesthetic preferences of the time.

Condition & Collectability

Both boxes show signs of age and use, with some surface wear and patina consistent with their age. The cigarette case has some minor dents, and the snuff box lid may not close perfectly flush. Despite these imperfections, these boxes remain desirable collectibles for enthusiasts of brassware, vintage accessories, or those interested in adding a touch of historical charm to their collection or display.
