Such a beautifully and simply designed, vintage pipe stand/humidor, done in an arts and crafts style that is reminiscent of Frank Lloyd Wright. The box isn’t perfect, having a few small imperfections, but it is nice overall and well constructed. It appears to be custom, and more than likely one of a kind. There are a few light corner damages, and drop of what looks like varnish or shellack on a lid. I did not try and remove it. I believe the wood is walnut. Please correct me if I’m wrong. Measures approximately 25.5″x8″x7.5. It smells wonderful too.. I strive to accurately depict and describe item conditions, but errors may occur. Clear communication is the best way to resolve issues.
