Designed to preserve and facilitate the use of tobacco, it has transformed over time into an object that is both practical and aesthetic. These vessels, often ornately decorated, came in a variety of sizes and shapes, catering to the tastes of each smoker. Floral motifs, hunting scenes, and even royal portraits adorned these pots, making them prestigious pieces. Among the rarest models, the one decorated with "suns" and equipped with a cork stopper, made by Roger Capron, stands out for its elegance and singularity, testifying to the artisanal know-how and fascinating history of this object loaded with tradition.
