Vintage pocket cigarette case produced in the USSR by the historic Moscow Metallodetal Plant, featuring an exceptionally detailed and sharp high-relief artistic depiction of the iconic Moscow City Council building (Mossovet, now the Moscow City Hall).
The front of the case showcases the grand neoclassical architectural facade of the historic landmark on Tverskaya Street, complete with its monumental columns, rows of windows, and a beautiful flowing fountain playing in the courtyard plaza out front. The central scene is beautifully enclosed within a highly ornate rectangular border frame decorated with fluid baroque scrolls, oak leaves, and acorns. At the bottom center of the frame sits a decorative blank shield cartouche wrapped in a ribbon scroll, perfect for custom engraving. This highly collectible piece features a refined silver-tone finish with an authentic aged patina.
This vintage cigarette case has been restored: the metal has been cleaned and polished, minor touch-ups have been applied where the original finish was lost, and, if needed, the internal elastic bands have been replaced. The original aesthetics have been preserved, making it a great addition to any collection. The side locking mechanism is completed with a mechanical push-button closure.
