Description

Beautiful antique cedar wood cigar humidor made to look like a leather trunk. It's 27cm wide x 15 x 15 and in excellent, original condition.

The straps over the top and the side handles look exactly like leather, complete with stitching, but are intrically carved, and are absolutely beautiful.

Opening the lid reveals a removable section for storing 50 cigars.

It comes with key and the brass lock works perfectly; on top is a circular brass cartouche which is blank.

Hard to know exactly when this was made, but from research I think it's fair to say around 1930.

This is an exceptional piece, beautifully made and just ready to go into a perfect setting for it.

Cigar humidors evolved in the 19th century as appreciation for properly aged tobacco grew, leading craftsmen to create specialized moisture-controlled boxes often styled after travel trunks.

Spanish cedar is the traditional interior lining due to its exceptional moisture retention and ability to repel pests, while exterior construction frequently utilises hardwoods, leather, and brass hardware.

Authentic pieces typically feature dovetail joinery, unlined or cedar interiors with tight lid seals, period-appropriate brass locks, and hand-fitted hinges rather than modern mass-produced fixings.

This piece functions effectively as a decorative accessory on a home office desk, bookshelf, or side table, adding texture and warmth to traditional and contemporary spaces alike.

Maintain the internal humidity using distilled water or propylene glycol solutions, keep the box away from direct sunlight, and periodically condition the exterior wood to prevent drying and cracking.
