The visible front features a matte black finish, punctuated by small signs of wear and scattered stains that attest to its age and authenticity. The gold inscriptions \"RÉGIE FRANÇAISE DES TABACS\" and \"SCAFERLATI VIZIR TABACS D’ORIENT\" are clearly legible and give the whole a simple, elegant, and decidedly retro graphic style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe tin has a rectangular shape with rounded corners, very characteristic of tobacco containers from the mid-20th century. Its black surface is dotted with some chips and traces of wear, mainly visible on the top, enhancing its vintage appearance and its charm as an antique object. There is no figurative decoration; only the simple and effective gold typography draws the eye to the top surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe visible lid rests on a box with a gold trim featuring ornamental embossed patterns, elegantly framing the main container. This detail adds an extra touch of sophistication to the object, while recalling the refined aesthetic of smoking accessories from that era. The set is placed on a red satin fabric, which highlights the contrast between the sobriety of the black and the splendor of the gold decoration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Scaferlati Vizir tin was intended to contain Oriental tobaccos, as indicated by the inscription, and served as both an advertising medium and a practical container for transporting or storing tobacco. This type of tin is now prized for vintage decoration, for display on a shelf or in a cabinet, and can also be used for storing small objects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed item, sold as is.
