The box visible in the photo has a gold or brass finish, characteristic of many mid-20th century smoking accessories. Its surface displays an authentic patina, with visible signs of wear, scratches, and oxidation marks, accentuating its retro character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe box consists of two parts: a removable lid and a base, both with the same gold appearance. The edges are clean, slightly rounded on top, and the visible surface shows a smooth finish with no apparent pattern or inscription. The junction between the lid and the base is clearly marked by a slight change in hue due to wear. No logo, brand, or text is visible on the presented side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis type of box was generally used to protect pocket flint lighters, very common in the 1950s and 60s. The golden metal appearance, compact shape, and simplicity of the design clearly evoke the vintage period and the utilitarian aesthetic of the time. The object shows consistent wear, with some scuff marks and small surface stains, without any chips or major deformations observable in the photo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThree other similar boxes or elements are partially visible in the background, suggesting that this is indeed an antique smoking accessory from a batch or series. The minimalist style and patina reinforce the authenticity of the object, typical of smokers' tabletop or pocket accessories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe box stands out for its sobriety and retro look, suitable for display on a shelf, a desk, or as vintage decor. It can also be used to store small items or smoking accessories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed item, sold as is.
