Large Antique Komai Style Japanese Damascene Cigarillo, Cigar or Cigarette Case
About the Item
This large antique damascene styled tobacco case is unsigned, but presumed to have originated from Japan and dating to approximately 1920 and done in a Anglo-Japanese style. The case is made of metal which has been ornately engraved with a Japanese landscape scene on the front, and painted black with gilding to accent the engraving. The front features a building with a water wheel next to a river, which trees and foliage in the foreground, and a volcano in the background. The back of the case is decorated with a small landscape and birds. Given the height of this case being just over six inches, it is presumed it was intended for small cigars or cigarillos. The hinges and clasp are both firm and work as intended.
