1912 British antique sterling silver cigarette case 62g Joseph Gloster

We would like to introduce you to an antique British sterling silver cigarette case.

This is a work by Joseph Gloster of Birmingham, England, created in 1912.
Both sides are beautifully carved with floral and leaf motifs.
The back is curved so that it can easily fit in your pocket, and it is large enough to hold cigarettes up to about 7.5cm in length.
The elastic band part shows some signs of wear, but the gold plating inside is still intact.

We hope this once-in-a-lifetime encounter will be a special one for you!
