Description from the seller

A beautiful and unique white metal Art Deco/ Modernist cigarette case, made in France in the 1930s. A very interesting piece with an imaginative modernist decoration of a stylized dragon in a landscape. Unfortunately, unsigned, but undoubtedly the work of an excellent artist.
It has Reims engraved on the back and a monogram on the front.

8.8 X 6.3 cm

Overall, good condition with surface wear consistent with age; the rubber bands are still the original, but worn out.
