This piece will appeal to tobacciana collectors and can also serve as a conversation piece for a home office, bar or smoking room. Each of the four drawers can hold a matchbox, so the case is practical as well as decorative. The cigar labels differ from brand to brand, giving the top of the case a varied, colorful look, and no two handmade pieces like this are exactly alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eShipping\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCarefully packed and shipped worldwide from Ukraine with a tracking number.
