Antique Dutch brass tobacco box, Netherlands, 18th or 19th century. A slim oval box of sheet brass with a hinged lid, set with a plain oval copper panel at the centre of the lid. The inside is tinned, and an old collection number is inked inside the lid.
Pipe smoking was so common in the 18th-century Netherlands that a brass tobacco box was an everyday pocket item. The plain copper panel was made to take the owner's initials or a date.
