Description

Mechanical cigar dispenser - Cigar cabinet - Napoleon III period - XIXth century

Cigar cellar in the form of a wooden kiosk. The door panels are in Makassar Ebony veneer.

This mechanical cigar dispenser is an iconic curiosity found in smoking rooms of the Napoleon III era.

Brass decoration. Holds 12 standard-sized cigars and 6 smaller ones. Cigars were much smaller back then than they are today.

Simply turn the knob on top to rotate the panels, revealing the cigars inside. The mechanism works very well.

There was originally a music box underneath the cabinet; I still have it, but it is not attached to the cabinet.

Originally, the music box would start playing when the wooden panels were opened. Perhaps a way of letting the lady know that the gentleman was about to smoke a cigar...
