"Never again": every smoker has probably thought this sentence at some point when reaching for a cigarette. But what seduces the passionate smoker more than his beloved tobacco? This makes the cigarette case presented here all the more amusing, with the warning motto "nie wieder-" emblazoned in glittering diamonds on the front lid. And yet the luxurious accessory only tempts you to smoke even more. After all, you have to give in to some temptations once in a while... The slightly curved case is made of solid gold and was created in Germany in the 1920s. It came to us from Minden. The reminder "never again" is applied to the lid at an angle in bold cursive script. The letters are made of light platinum and set with glittering diamonds. The lower edge of the lid is engraved with the letter "O" beneath a baronial crown. The precious case therefore originally came from aristocratic ownership. The solid gold box impresses with its weight of almost sixty-six grams, which makes the object a real hand flatterer. A blue sapphire cabochon is set as a thumb rest. This is an unusual and precious cigarette case that is also ideal for non-smokers to keep business cards in and carry with them in style - a luxurious accessory with many possible uses.
