About the Item

An exceptional Art Deco period silver-plated desktop stash box, cigarette dispenser or humidor cabinet retail-stamped by the prestigious luxury house Mark Cross London. Featuring a sleek semi-circular architectural silhouette resting on subtle bun feet, this piece opens via a smooth revolving/swivel mechanism controlled by a front pull knob. The front panel displays a custom, period-correct engraved geometric Art Deco diamond monogram with the initials "ED". When swiveled open, it reveals a segmented internal compartment designed to organize cigarettes or small cigars vertically.
