1970s French Silver-Plated Metal Box with Wooden Interior – Vintage Cigarette Ca
Located in Auribeau sur Siagne, FR
1970s French Silver-Plated Metal Box with Wooden Interior – Vintage Cigarette Case
This elegant French silver-plated metal box from the 1970s was likely designed as a cigarette case. It features a beautiful aged patina and a refined metallic shine that highlight its craftsmanship. The lid is framed with a twisted metal border, adding a touch of sophistication and texture. The interior is lined with wood, providing a warm contrast to the cool silver exterior. There is a minor structural imperfection in the opening mechanism, discreet and non-intrusive to its use. Both decorative and functional, this vintage piece is perfect for collectors or for use as a refined storage box.
Key features:
French silver-plated metal box, 1970s
Wooden interior with elegant twisted metal border
Light structural flaw in mechanism (non-visible, functional)
Beautiful patina and polished finish
