About the Item
A beautiful and rare antique German silver cigarette case with a sunflower repoussé and scrolling foliage decoration, with the name Dorothy engraved on the front.
Dating to around 1890–1910, this case reflects the late 19th-century fascination with bold naturalistic floral motifs, popular in both the Aesthetic and early Art Nouveau movements.
