Art Deco Wooden German Cigarette Box – Three-Tier Concertina Mechanism – c

Art Deco Wooden Cigarette Box with Three-Tier Concertina Mechanism and Integrated Match Striker – c. 1920s/1930s A beautiful and distinctive Art Deco tabletop cigarette box, dating from approximately the 1920s–1930s, featuring an ingenious three-tier expanding mechanism and a cleverly integrated match striker. The elegantly curved wooden lid, rounded corners, warm reddish-brown finish and original metal handle reflect the refined geometric aesthetic of the Art Deco period. Opening the lid reveals three beautifully crafted wooden cigarette holders with individually carved grooves, connected by an articulated metal mechanism that unfolds into an attractive stepped display. An especially interesting and practical feature is the original match striker integrated inside the box, allowing matches to be struck directly within the compartment. This thoughtful detail highlights the ingenuity and attention to functionality characteristic of early 20th-century design. The contrast between the darker exterior and the lighter natural wood interior adds considerable decorative appeal. Condition Preserved in beautiful original patina, with authentic signs of age and use consistent with its period. The interior retains its original character, including natural wear and oxidation to the metal components. A very small, discreet conservation repair is visible on one rear corner. It does not detract from the overall beauty or decorative character of the piece.
