Exceptional Hand Carved Horses Head Tobacco Jar
From our Boxes collection, we are pleased to offer this incredibly well carved French Tobacco Jar in the form of a horses head.
The tobacco jar of true natural form beautifully hand carved with a horse shoe base and very well detailed horses head. The head with mane over to one side, ears stood up, mouth open showing its teeth finished with realistic glass eyes. The horses head features an opened to the rear which hinges back to access the hollowed out centre originally for storing tobacco. The hollowed out pocket is a perfect secret compartment for accessories, coins, keys or still able to store tobacco.
The tobacco jar dates to the late 19th century circa 1880.
Tobacco Jar
A tobacco jar is a lidded container designed to store loose pipe tobacco, keeping it fresh, dry and protected from the air. Traditionally made from ceramic, glass, wood or metal, these jars often feature a tight-fitting lid, sometimes with a cork or inner liner to help preserve moisture levels and maintain the tobacco’s aroma.
From the 18th century onward, tobacco jars became popular household and gentleman’s-study accessories, with many produced in decorative styles ranging from simple utilitarian forms to highly ornate examples with figural lids, humidor inserts or maker’s marks.
