About the Item

French Art Déco Rectangular Shagreen Leather Box for Cigars etc. from the 1930s. The interior is made of cedar wood, which particularly enhances the tobacco aroma. There is a ribbed compartment in between. The outside of the box is veneered with ivory-colored stingray skin and divided by small wooden slats. The keyhole is framed, and there is a small key. The box is large and can of course also be used for other purposes, such as jewelry or other utensils. Chagrin leather is a material made from the skin of sharks or rays. Chagrin was used in the 18th century to make cases and was rediscovered in the 1930s for the manufacture of furniture, boxes, etc.
