magnificent oversized antique english sterling silver cigar box by walker and hall

Description

A stunning and unusual large cigar box / Humidor made from sterling silver by the top-notch silversmith, Walker and Hall.
A fabulous simple Art Deco design with a pillow top, the hinged lid lifts to reveal the underside of the lid lavishly gilded. The box is lined in Cedar wood which is what was used to keep the cigars fresh. Not officially a Humidor as these are a modern invention but these Cedar lined boxes are often referred to as Humidors.
The interior has a central adjustable cedar division which can also be removed to accommodate very large cigars. The interior compartments measure 5 1/2" x 3 7/8" and when the division is removed the width measures 7 7/8".
The silver is fully hallmarked for Sheffield 1904, Edwardian in era. Excellent condition with minor wear commensurate with age. The exterior measures 8 1/2" x 6 1/8" x 5 5/8" tall.
