VERY RARE 1850’s HAVILAND LIMOGES TOBACCO JAR PIPE HOLDER ASHTRAY MIDDLE EASTERN FIGURAL. Very rare Haviland, Limoges tobacco jar with a pipe holder. It has the 1st mark for 1850-65.. Haviland made 3 humidors. All 3 were designed with far east subjects… They were displayed in the 1855 Paris expo. This is one of the 3 seldom seen. The hat lifts and is the holder for the tobacco with a well for a sponge in the hat. The hair on the sides has holes to hold pipes and the mouth is open with a curved lip to hold burnt matches. It measures 6″ high and 6″ diameter. THE PIECE IS IN GOOD CONDITION. THERE IS A CRACK ON THE LEFT SIDE NEAR THE TOP. I BELIEVE IT IS A CRACK BECAUSE THE LINES IN THE CRACK DO NOT ACTUALLY INTERSECT OR MEET. IF IT IS REPAIRED IT’S A VERY GOOD REPAIR. THE GOLD HAS SOME FADING BUT LOOKS DECENT. PLEASE LOOK CLOSELY AT ALL THE PHOTOS AS THEY ARE AN IMPORTANT PART OF MY DESCRIPTION. This item is in the category “Collectibles\Tobacciana\Cigars\Humidors\Antique & Vintage”.
