Vintage Cigarette Cases Collection
This lot comprises six vintage cigarette cases, each exhibiting unique design elements. The cases are constructed from a silver-tone metal, likely a base metal with a silver plating, and showcase varying degrees of embossed or engraved detailing. The designs range from geometric Art Deco patterns to simpler, more streamlined forms, suggesting production across several decades of the 20th century. These cases would have been essential accessories for smokers during their respective eras, offering both protection for cigarettes and a stylish statement.
Condition and Collectibility
These cigarette cases exhibit signs consistent with age and use, including surface scratches, minor dents, and some patina. The interiors show varying degrees of wear, with some cases retaining more of their original finish than others. Despite these imperfections, the cases remain visually appealing and represent a fascinating glimpse into the history of smoking accessories. Collectors will appreciate the variety of designs and the opportunity to own a piece of vintage style.
