1541 Colorful Sea Life with Seahorse Cigar Box Purse
I just love this beautiful, colorful, underwater, Lilly image and so does the little gold seahorse finding that adorns it! Perfect for summer or vacation, this cigar box purse starts out as a CAO, La Traviata natural wood cigar box. The cigar box has been flipped so that the opening is now on the top and has been given a gold three ball lock for security. I painted the back black. *There is a slight scratch under the paint, probably from when someone cut the plastic off of the box initially, but it’s not really an issue in my opinion. Gold corner protectors have been placed on the front of the cigar box purse. Eight gold purse feet have been added to the back and bottom for protection. Gold hardware has been attached to the sides so that you may add a strap that you already own. This makes these little cigar box purses of mine versatile in that they can be worn by the handle, over the shoulder or cross- body. I sell straps and gold and silver cross body chains too. The chain in the last photo is available, but not included. The handle is made up of teal and gold beads and a large ivory spiral bead in the center with a pale blue vegan leather tassel. The inside is so much fun with padded hot pink fabric and aqua ball trim. The authentic La Traviata label remains on the inner lid for authenticity sake. 7 x 7.25 x 3″ THIS IS AN AUTHENTIC CIGAR BOX PURSE, SO SMALL FLAWS INFLICTED BY THE SMOKERS OF THE CIGARS ARE TO BE EXPECTED! They only add character and charm! Large flaws will be noted in the description.

History: La Traviata, an old Cuban brand, and an even older three act Italian opera by Giuseppe Verdi. The Ozgener family has been producing CAO cigars since the 1980s. The company name comes from the initials of CAO cigars founder Cano A. Ozgener. The Ozenger’s originally produced pipes in Nashville, TN, but found their destiny in cigars before long. CAO cigars grew out of that Nashville operation into what it is today. In 2007 CAO cigars was bought by Scandinavian Tobacco Group who subsequently merged its premium tobacco division, of which the CAO brand was part, with General Cigar in 2010. However, the family spirit of the CAO cigars brand endures. The CAO cigars brand has over twenty cigars which are acclaimed by aficionados around the globe. A relative newcomer to the cigar world, CAO is able to produce some of the most highly rated cigars out there without being overly expensive.
