About this seller
ProfessionalProduct description
It belongs to those objects that immediately convey a lifestyle. In the 1950s and 1960s, the tobacco jar remained a familiar companion in offices, living rooms, or libraries, placed near an armchair and keeping tobacco within reach. This particular one possesses a particularly warm presence. Its turned wood, deeply patinated in dark brown tones, is adorned with three friezes of small metal studs arranged regularly. Brass cabochons and conical elements punctuate the decor and subtly catch the light. The lid features the same decorative work, right down to its handle knob topped with a pretty metal rosette. The concentric traces of the turning are still visible and give the piece that artisanal character sought after in objects from this period. One can imagine it in the library of a castle or a large family home, among antique bindings, placed on a mahogany desk, a game table, or near a leather armchair. An almost cinematic setting. A few books, a low lamp, the dark wood, and the muted reflections of the brass. It can naturally resume its primary function for an enthusiast, but it can just as readily become a storage box or a decorative object, immediately bringing that touch of a cabinet of curiosities and an old house that cannot be artificially created. Height approximately 18 cm. Diameter approximately 11 cm. 1950s-1960s.
