Dating from the 1930s to 1940s, it showcases a clean, modern silhouette accented by thoughtful details — from its precise interlocking handmade hinge to a discreet lift notch and a gleaming gold-washed interior.

The lid is monogrammed “JJA” at center, adding a personal and distinguished character to its classic form. Substantial in hand, it measures 5.75" wide, 4.5" deep, and 0.75" high, with an impressive weight of 331 grams of solid sterling silver. It remains in good vintage condition, showing light surface scratches, minor signs of use, and two small indentations on the lid. Please see photos for further condition assessment.

While originally designed to hold cigarettes, its versatility makes it ideal today for storing jewelry, personal mementos, desk accessories, or treasured keepsakes. Whether styled on a vanity, writing desk, or bar cart, it lends both utility and sophisticated presence.

Cartier’s legacy as a house of luxury — beloved by royalty, silver screen icons, and global tastemakers — is palpable in this piece. Signed “Cartier” on the interior lid, it’s a beautiful acquisition for collectors of fine silver, vintage Cartier, or heirloom-quality objets d’art. See less
