Description from the seller
Magnificent mahogany cigar humidor – Hygrometer and humidifier – Vintage 20th century
Superb cigar humidor in mahogany wood, featuring an elegant traditional craftsmanship, a beautiful varnished finish, and warm reddish-brown tones. This very attractive case stands out for its refined aesthetics, the visible grain of the wood, and the carefully crafted corner joints, which give it a lot of charm and character.
The rectangular lid, nicely framed by moldings, bears an elegant gold inscription, “Cigar Humidor,” in cursive letters. The front features a bronze-colored metal lock, adding an extra touch of elegance.
An interior specially designed for cigar preservation
Upon opening, the case reveals a handsome natural light wood interior that harmonizes with the darker tones of the exterior mahogany.
The inner lid is equipped with two accessories:
- An analog circular hygrometer, surrounded by an elegant gold border, allowing humidity to be measured.
- A circular black device intended for internal humidification.
The hygrometer has a pretty graduated dial from 20 to 100%, with the inscriptions “Dry,” “Normal,” and “Humid.”
These elements attest to the primary function of this case, designed to keep cigars in an appropriate environment.
