GBD (Ganneval, Bondier & Donninger) – Paris, - 没有保留价 - 烟嘴 - 骨 - GBD 1924 雕刻骨柄

一件来自传说中的法国制造商的卓越、极具收藏价值的二十世纪早期吸烟古董。This exquisite cigarette holder is beautifully hand-crafted from natural bovine bone, featuring a finely etched, hand-inked scrimshaw-style illustration of a traditional Japanese Geisha in a kimono on the front face.Reverse Side Inscriptions: Features two distinct hand-carved Asian characters: 「車」 (historically signifying Vehicle/Rickshaw) and 「中」 (signifying Center/Inside). These markings denote the specific artisan workshop or export series created for the high-end European tobacco market.The GBD Presentation Case: The piece rests safely inside its original deluxe, custom-fitted hardcase covered in dark plum bordeaux leather. The interior is lined with premium cream silk and velvet. Crucially, the inside lid displays the gold-stamped manufacturer crest of GBD (Ganneval, Bondier & Donninger), featuring their iconic winged griffin/lion holding a pipe above a banner explicitly marked "PARIS". Additionally, an authentic handwritten ink inscription on the right-hand silk edge documents its provenance date as "1924".The mouthpiece end features dense surface crazing (cosmetic hairline cracking) and a rich, deeply darkened amber-colored tar patina built up organically from period historical use.
