This elegant cigarette case, made by Georg Adam Scheid (GAS) in Vienna, is a masterpiece of silverwork from the Art Nouveau period. Its surface is decorated with intricate floral engravings that reflect the organic and sophisticated style characteristic of the period. The piece bears a clear "GAS" mark, a sign of the quality craftsmanship of Scheid's workshops.
Crafted from nielloed silver with a self-opening design, this cigarette case combines functionality and elegance. Inside, gold details provide a warm and luxurious contrast. This piece was probably used by high society gentlemen, reflecting the fashion trends and sophistication of the time.
Georg Adam Scheid, apprentice and master silversmith, was a key figure in European jewellery and silversmithing, with a prolific career that spanned from his beginnings at Markowitsch & Scheid to the founding of his own firm in 1882. Scheid's pieces are highly collectible for their quality and unmistakable style.
Ideal for collectors of vintage items or as an exclusive gift for lovers of history and design.
