Vintage Art Nouveau 9ct Gold Cigarette Cheroot Holder

Carefully preserved in its original box, this cigarette or cheroot holder is topped and collared in 9ct gold.  The gold is fully hallmarked for AF&co of Birmingham and assayed in 1911.   The box is a deep maroon and gilt tooled leather with a purple velvet inner, the top of which is gilded with BBB for Blumfields Best Briars (respected smoking accessory provider, especially well known for their pipes).  Measuring c. 2.1/4" inch (5.5cm) long it comples complete with quills.  It has been pre loved and shows signs of having been used.  Having survived for nearly 100 years, this is a delight! - The whole ensemble is very attractive and I am hoping will find its way to an appreciative buyer.

I am always happy to combine postage certainly smaller items travel well together and often attract big discounts on the 2nd item postal costs.
