ABOUT PRODUCTID 16746
This Polish cigar case, crafted circa 1920, epitomizes early 20th-century metalwork. The elongated form is composed of guilloche and silver-plated metal, featuring a cool-toned, subtly matte silver finish. The surface is richly adorned with raised Art Nouveau ornamentation—flowing organic lines and stylized floral motifs that wrap gently around the rounded edges and elongate the silhouette, measuring 12 cm in length and 2.5 × 2.5 cm in cross-section. A ball-snap closure, smoothly integrated into the design, secures the contents with understated precision. The metal retains a natural, even patina without significant wear, dents, or evidence of restoration, confirming its very good preservation. This small piece resonates with the artistic voice of the Art Nouveau era: its guilloché pattern and delicate relief evoke the refined rituals of salons and the art of slow conversation associated with the world of early 20th-century connoisseurs. The ornamentation and organic motifs speak to a broader fascination with nature and flowing forms, while the satin surface diffuses light gently, projecting subtlety rather than ostentation. It seems to recall intimate moments—each time the lid is pressed, it revives an atmosphere of understated ritual and timeless taste. This case may serve both as a collectible utility and as a refined accent on a desk, shelf, or within a vitrine—a detail for those attuned to the nuances of historical design. It pairs well with other Art Nouveau-inspired accessories, polished woods, or classic glass pieces. In a collector’s eclectic interior, it might become a personal narrative piece, quietly inviting appreciation for the history of craftsmanship.
