FAQs

During the late nineteenth century, tabletop humidors and smokers cabinets were designed to store cigars and tobacco at a controlled moisture level while keeping contents secure under lock and key.

Victorian humidors were typically constructed from solid hardwoods such as oak, mahogany, or walnut, often fitted with cedar or zinc linings and finished with brass hardware.

Authentic nineteenth-century examples feature hand-cut joinery, period-correct brass escutcheons or corner mounts, natural wood oxidisation, and original lock mechanisms.

An antique humidor functions as a functional accent piece on an office desk, library bookshelf, or sideboard top, providing storage for small everyday items.

Maintain the wood by applying a natural beeswax polish periodically, keep the cabinet away from direct heat sources, and wipe brass fittings clean with a soft cloth.
