Smoking has never been a purely utilitarian pursuit. It has always been associated with style and fashion, which is why cigarette packs are quickly becoming a highly decorative personal accessory. When it comes to cigarette packs, the first thing that comes to mind is a rectangular or square design, like the size in the photo, that fits on the chest, coat pocket, trouser pocket or purse. Sterling silver is one of the most common materials used to make antique and vintage cigarette cases. Designers and jewelers emboss and pursue the look of their shells, from delicate floral or geometric patterns to bold designs. Better cases are gold plated inside, sometimes with a tender or congratulatory inscription. After the First World War, smoking became very popular and fashionable, and Paris became the center of cigarette pack design. For wealthy smokers, French jewelers such as Cartier and Van Cleef & Arpels have made cases set with diamonds and other precious Gemstone, which is another story of other high-end craft collections. *This design hall is mainly based on European antiques, old pieces and old things. After years of baptism, some antiques will inevitably have slight historical traces and black spots, or small missing corners. It is inevitable that it is not as clean and flawless as the brand new product, but this does not affect its retro beauty.
