PAIRPOINT MANUFACTURING COMPANY – NEW BEDFORD MASS. (1893) QUADRUPLE PLATE CIGAR HUMIDOR. Not a copy, reproduction, or restoration. 10-3/4 tall by 2-3/4 diameter. Original jewelers engraving reads CIGARS in capital script with an ingenious flowering tobacco leaf hand engraved above it. The beautiful Parisian Champagne Bottle unscrews into four separate pieces so as to be used as a hidden cigar humidor, ashtray, and match safe. The fun design perfectly matched the frivolous and bubbly mood of the wealthiest classes during The Gilded Age in America. The perfect accessory for the library or study of a well appointed Victorian home. Extremely short and limited production run. The scroll ornamentation was awarded a United States Design Patent On August, 22nd, 1893, and helped establish the reputation of PAIRPOINT for interesting design innovation. Silver plate over brass casting. VERY FINE to EXCELLENT CONDITION. We clearly understand that the most serious collectors prize untouched patina… So weve left it as is. There is even a little tobacco dust in the threads of the separate pieces. No scratches, dings, or cracks. One small dent and very minor ring abrasion along the base is the only real sign of use. Destined to be the centerpiece of the most serious collectors display. By the way, we reduce our prices by 10% or more any time we need to relist an item.
