Heavy Quality Victorian Engraved Silver Cigar Case

A quality late Victorian engraved silver cigar case, hallmarked Birmingham 1897. The domed double sided silver case with fine quality chased decoration and engraving on both sides with central blank polished cartouche to the front. Sprung lid with clasp to aid opening, which reveals a clean gilt lined interior when open. Bears the makers mark for Birmingham silversmith Harry Hayes along with clear hallmarks to all sections. Weighing over 5.3 troy oz, this is an unusual model with the internal compartment being free of ridges, which would normally hold the cigars in place. A material strap is located within the case to hold the cigars in position. Presented in immaculate condition with a deep shine. Keep up to date via our Instagram channel - sturmansantiques.
