Cigarette Box | Nautical Design with Dolphins | Silver-gilt Plated
Sleek and sophisticated, this table cigarette box is a mid-century design by Ravinet dâEnfert for Hermès. A slim, rectangular box designed to house cigarettes, itâs reminiscent of a time gone by and is now often used as a decorative object.
Beautifully crafted in France by Ravinet dâEnfert, the renowned Parisian silversmiths who made many pieces for the iconic brand, itâs a silver gilt design typical of the house.
It takes on beautiful engine turned decoration with a smooth polished trim and a statement gilded double-dolphin handle. Lift the lid on its hinged back, and it opens to reveal an elegant cedar-lined interior, with three compartments.
Taking a closer look, on the side of the box youâll find the stamp âHermès Parisâ, and there are subtle signs of its age with patina to the silver, only adding to the vintage charm of this collectable piece.
An unmistakably classic Hermès piece, and a unique addition to any collection, this exquisite box perfectly captures the design style typical of Paris during this time of the 20th century, and is a little slice of history. It will complement any desk set up or dressing table, to bring a little joy to your working day.
