Vintage pocket cigarette case crafted in the USSR in 1946, featuring an elegant, personalized hand-engraved design that carries a deep historical and sentimental story.

The front lid showcases an exquisite, professionally hand-engraved inscription in elegant Cyrillic script: "На память любимому другу. Горький 1946" (In memory of a beloved friend. Gorky 1946). The heartfelt text is beautifully framed by intricate, flowing floral ornaments, classical scrollwork accents, and cross-hatched decorative medallions in the corners. 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.

  • tobacciana collections
