Up for sale is an exceptional antique used 19th C hand-carved natural cigarette holder, measuring an impressive 7.5 inches in length. This elegant "opera-length" piece features a slender, faceted design tapering down to a slim, comfortable mouthpiece.
A standout feature of this piece is the striking structural ring pattern inlaid around the midsection. This features a central band flanked by dark horn or ebony spacers, which historically served as expansion collars to protect the long bone stem from shifting temperatures or cracking.
The piece features a beautiful, naturally aged yellowish-cream patina with distinct organic grain patterns visible under close inspection. The wider receptacle end shows the classic dark resin charring from historical smoking use, giving it an authentic vintage character. A wonderful addition to any antique tobacciana collection or a striking historic display piece.
Please review all high-resolution photos for close-up details on the natural grain, patina, and overall antique condition. It will be packaged with extreme care for safe transit.
