Description from the seller

Refined Art Deco-style cigarette case, made in sterling silver 925 with a beautiful gilding remarkably well preserved. The piece bears the 925 hallmark accompanied by a butterfly, mark associated with the German silversmith E.G. Bek, Pforzheim.

Its exterior is decorated with fine regular guilloché-type lines, while the interior, fully gilded, retains its original mechanism intended to hold cigarettes. The black side button provides an elegant contrast and underscores the object's sophisticated character.

The cigarette case shows only light signs of use compatible with its age, without altering its handsome overall appearance. The gilding remains particularly bright and uniform.

Dimensions: about 12 × 8 cm
Thickness: 9.84 mm
Weight: 166 g
Material: gilded sterling silver 925
A piece of fine quality, both decorative and functional, representative of the elegance of men's accessories from the first half of the 20th century.
