2225 Bookish Cigar Box Purse
“There is no friend as loyal as a book”. Ernest Hemingway This image of a bookcase filled with old books is such a thing of beauty! I can almost smell it- can you? What a perfect gift for avid readers and lovers of books or collectors of books everywhere! The upcycled cigar box purse starts out as a brown, wooden, Sublimes cigar box with the original label on the inner lid. The inside has been lined in beautiful padded black velvet and gold trim and the handle is done in all black, wooden beads and a substantial black silk tassel. I painted the back or the box black and sealed it with a protective coating.
The cigar box purse has been flipped so that the opening is now on the top and given a gold three ball lock for security. 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. 6.75 x 9.25 x 3.5″
** 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. If you don’t like what you see, I can do custom cigar box purses and can include anything you like!- pictures of family members, pets, places- you name it! I always ship insured.
