Born in Germany in 1838, Ropner migrated to Britain, where he eventually founded his own shipping line, Ropner Shipping Company, in the late 19th century. Known for constructing robust cargo vessels, his contributions bolstered the UK's merchant fleet, and he was knighted for his service to British maritime interests.

Antique 20thC American Solid Silver Three-Tier Cigar Box By Tiffany & Co c.1920
By Tiffany & Co.
Located in Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent
Antique early-20th Century Tiffany & Co solid silver three tier cigar box, cedar-lined, rectangular shaped, the bottom compartment used for cigars and is mounted with a partly raised hinged cover supporting a smaller cigarette box and its lid supporting hinged match box with cigar clipper with ball handle, the exterior of the box is engraved with a scrolling foliage pattern throughout. Hallmarked Sterling silver (925 standard), Made for Tiffany & Co, stamped inventory number 123.
One of the most iconic jewellery brands, Tiffany & Co's history begins from a small store that was opened on Broadway, New York in 1837. Two school friends Charles Lewis Tiffany and John B.
