Very impressive large gilt sterling silver cigarette case made by Asprey of London and dating to the Art Deco period. Rectangular form with a bevelled chamfer body that is engraved all over with an engine-turned design; the interior of the case is sumptuously gold-plated.

Very unusual slide-open mechanism keeps this case securely closed, no matter how much it moves around.

Due to the size of the case the rubber strap is divided in the middle with a bracket that creates two compartments - for cigarettes and business cards for example, or two different types of cigarettes.

The applied gold initials are secured with pins to the lid and can be removed and easily replaced with someone else's initials. At over 200g of heavy gauge silver, this would make a wonderful present for someone!

Maker: Asprey & Co
Assay office: London
Date: 1927

201.76 g / 6.49 t oz
13 x 8 x 1 cm overall
11.8 x 6.7 cm inside

Excellent condition. There are two tiny dings to the front half from the bracket on the opposing half (that secures the band).

I due candelabri sono appena arrivati e rispecchiano fedelmente la descrizione del venditore con in più che uno sembra leggermente storto rispetto alla verticale. Ho potuto rimontarli con facilità

Veramente carini e nella loro scatola originale d'epoca. Sono ancor meglio di quanto le foto lasciassero intravedere. Grazie

L'oggetto è arrivato oggi, quasi perfetto nel senso che sulla parte di fondo a specchio vi sono alcune rigature che ritengo possano essere facilmente (spero) cancellate con un'operazione di lucidatura

Pakje is snel verzonden en goed aangekomen. De amethist is veel donkerder dan op de foto, bijna zwart en niet paars.
