Handcrafted and Inlaid World War II Italian Nutwood Tank Design Cigarette Box
Located in Lisse, NL
Unique cigarette box celebrating the end of WWII in Italy in 1944. If you have a passion for rare wartime antiques then this handcrafted cigarette box celebrating the end of the second world war in Italy could be yours to own and enjoy. Apart from very well made, it is also made of some beautiful woodtypes such as the solid nutwood cigarette holders and the stunning burl veneer on the front and back. Whomever created this piece must have been both very impressed and truly grateful to see the American / allied tanks roll into his town or village. With smoking still very popular amongst soldiers back in those days, we feel this work of post-trench art could very well have been presented to one of the soldiers as a token of appreciation and gratitude. This box still opens and shuts perfectly and apart from one replaced canon on the front, this unique box could not be more original. The beautiful wood inlay on top too is in excellent condition and the gun and hatch on top of that can be rotated. This one of a kind box makes a great deskpiece, but no matter where you decide to have it on display, the beauty and history of this antique talking...
