History: This box was my great grandma’s that my grandmother kept. I was going through her storage when I discovered the box, and fell in love with the illustration and vintage-ness of the piece. Back in the day it used to hold 25 Cigars in a little glass cigar case per cigar, now I use it now to hold art supplies.
