Dunhill Cigarette Case by A. Nicholls & Son

A magnificent two tone, guilloché finished cigarette case made for Dunhill. The barley grain pattern guilloché that covers most of the piece is broken up on the face, with three polished rose gold stripes running the length. These two sides have thin stepped ridges running along the 4 edges, while the outer sides bear the barley grain guilloché pattern. These textures give an immense depth to the case, and once opened the gilt polished interior gives off an almost heavenly glow. The expansion band appears to be original to the piece and is fully functional, fitting modern filterless smokes well. Hallmarked on both sides, and with a spring activated hinge it would be a staple to any smoker or collector's ensemble. *Atelier Vespoint does not condone or promote the use of or smoking of tobacco or cigarettes.
