Product Information
The book offers an unprecedented look at cigarette holders through a selection of approximately 125 pieces from the collection of Carolyn Hsu-Balcer and Rene Balcer. Its introductory essay is both a social history of that world-changing leaf, tobacco, and a design history of its accoutrements. It examines the history of smoking from its pre-Columbian roots in the Americas through to the present-day worldwide e-cigarette craze, taking the reader on a journey from tobacco smoking as a sacred ritual, through the controversies of its worldwide spread, and the machine-rolled cigarette's role in the world wars and as a tool for European and American women's equality. Following the illustrated essay is a luxurious catalogue of newly commissioned photography that makes these diminutive objects pop off the pages with brilliant colour and form. The collection includes cigarette holders in their simplest incarnations - the disposable promotional holders given away at trendy New York nightclubs - to their most exquisite - the work of Faberge, Cartier, Tiffany, Van Cleef and Arpels, and other renowned jewellers of the late nineteenth- and twentieth-centuries.

Not the fault of the seller but they were kind enough to offer to resolve the matter to my satisfaction. Great customer service which seems to be a dying art these days. Wouldn't hesitate to deal with them again. First class.Scottish Fishing Boats, 1872167667, Wilson, Gloria, Very Good Book (#126389280662)
