Description from the seller

The object is a luxury accessory for smokers, more precisely a cigar case, made by the Italian brand Bartoli.

Material and Workmanship
•⁠ ⁠Material: According to the warranty certificate, it is made of Radica di Erica Arborea (briar root). This is the same noble material used to make high-quality pipes, being extremely heat-resistant and having a special texture (wood fiber).
•⁠ ⁠Brand: Bartoli is a well-known name in Italy for solid wood handicrafts and luxury "lifestyle" accessories.
•⁠ ⁠Details: A "high-gloss" finish is observed that highlights the knots and natural fiber of the wood. The fact that it is handmade ("handicraft") increases its collector's value.

Functionality
•⁠ ⁠The main object is the case that protects the cigars from crushing and maintains a certain degree of humidity in the short term.
•⁠ ⁠The small, cylindrical, perforated piece (in the third image) appears to be a portable humidifier or a holder/puncher type accessory, although it is most likely an element that is inserted into the case to regulate air circulation or humidity.

Condition and Presentation
• The object is in mint condition.
•⁠ ⁠The presence of the original fabric pouch and the warranty/authenticity certificate (in which the item number "24" is listed) adds considerable value to a collector.
