These pop-up cigarette and or match holders were very popular in the art deco period and were made in several shapes. Most reference books on Art Deco feature at least one of these tabletop holders. This one is enamel on brass and when you push down on the shade, the receptacle part opens up and your cigarette is ready for you. Because it doesn't have a smoking motif, you could use it on your desk for clips, candies etc. It stands 8 1/4 with a 4" diameter base and is in excellent condition. Exposed brass parts have a nice patina.

Very nice black lacquer covered cigarette holder and ashtray richly decorated with gold. The ashtray is marked on the bottom in what appears to be Russian, Turkish or Iranian script. I believe the lion motif is an Middle Eastern symbol. The gold is a bit worn on the top of the holder otherwise in very good condition.

For sale, a pair of fabulous, sterling silver, cigarette box holders by Napier. They measure 3 3/8" wide by 3" high excluding their 4 ball feet, have a very fine, graduated, linear DECO design engraved on both sides, and their ends are plain. Only one of the identical pair of holders is marked "NAPIER STERLING" on it's end and they each have "MTG" monogrammed on one side. They were used on the coffee table, dining table or bar, back when almost everyone smoked. Nick and Nora Charles would have loved them!
