Description from the seller

Cigarette Case with Roll-Top Smokers Box and Glass Ashtray - Wood and Brass - 1960s.
Mid Century Smoker Box Roll-Top - Vintage Table Box 18x17x10 cm - Cigar Cheroot Holder - Collector's Etagere
Description:
Rare Vintage Roll-Top Smoking Case - 1960s - Excellent Condition.
Magnificent cigarette/cigar box for table, an authentic piece of Italian Mid-Century design from the 1960s.
Made of fine wood with an elegant roll-top shutter, finished with polished brass side profiles and an ebony-wood base. A piece that combines practicality with striking visual impact.
Surprise operation:
The front drawer with brass knob slides forward, revealing:
1. An original crystal ashtray decorated with a bubble motif, perfectly inset and removable.
2. An internal double cavity with cigarette slots, capable of holding up to 11 + 11 cigarettes/sticks/cheroots (6 shown in the photo for display).
When closed, the piece looks like a small vént-assisted chest, elegant and compact, perfect as a living-room accessory, on a desk, or in a study.
Technical details:
* Material: Wood, brass, glass
* Dimensions: 18 x 17 x 10 cm (L x W x H)
* Era: 1960s - handmade workmanship.
* Style: Mid-Century, Hollywood Regency
* Functions: Cigarette holder, cigar holder, ashtray, pocket emptying, secret box.
Condition:
Excellent vintage condition preserved. Roll-top is smooth and fluid, wood shows a light patina appropriate to age, no cracks. Ashtray glass intact, no chips. Minimal wear marks on the ebony base. See detailed photos, part of the description.
Ideal item for collectors of smoking accessories, vintage lovers, interior decorators, or as a striking gift idea. Today also commonly used as a design box, desk organizer, business-card holder, or candy dispenser.
Shipping carefully prepared with protected packaging.
