ANTIQUE SILVER CIGAR BOXES
The introduction of cigars to the UK can be traced back to 1814, when officers returning from the Peninsular War brought them back as gifts given by officers from the Spanish army. The first silver cigar boxes would have been made shortly after this, but examples from this period are understandably rare, with the majority being made towards the end of the Victorian period and after, when cigars had become more available.
