Vintage pocket cigarette case crafted in the USSR, featuring a bold, historic high-relief design dedicated to the legendary Soviet test pilot and Hero of the Soviet Union, Valery Pavlovich Chkalov (1904–1938).
The front lid showcases a detailed stamped bas-relief of Valery Chkalov standing in his iconic aviation jumpsuit and boots, looking confidently toward the sky. At the base of the figure, a stylized plaque bears the bold Cyrillic name inscription "В. ЧКАЛОВ" (V. Chkalov), flanked by elegant laurel branches symbolizing heroism and honor. Set against a beautiful pebbled or textured background that gives the piece excellent visual contrast, this historic mid-century item has been meticulously restored: the metal has been professionally cleaned and polished, minor touch-ups have been carefully applied where the original finish was lost, and new elastic bands have been fitted inside to ensure full functionality while preserving its authentic vintage aesthetics.
