AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Silver cigarette case from the Art Nouveau period (Jugendstil)
Matte silver and the large flower embellished with a baroque pearl and small rubies.
The clasp is also set with a ruby.
I am not sure whether these are real pearls and rubies or synthetic.
Be that as it may, it is a beautiful object from the beautiful Art Nouveau period.
The box closes perfectly and is in good condition.
