Engraved Silver-Plated Cigarette Case – Maritime Motif

Understated yet evocative, this vintage silver-plated cigarette case features a delicately etched tall ship in full sail — a quiet tribute to seafaring journeys and distant horizons. Likely mid-20th century, its curved, compact form once slipped into the inner pockets of well-dressed travelers and naval officers alike.

Now aged to perfection, with a worn patina and soft edges, it feels like a relic from an age of ocean liners and handwritten postcards. Perfect for holding business cards, small keepsakes, or simply displayed as a refined collectible.
