Description
Most unusual figurative cigar cutter, 5" tall, 2 1/2"dia. at the base, in the form of a miniature ship's engine order telegraph in brass with an articulated handle and speed readings on the dial. Each side of the telegraph face features a hole into which the tip of a cigar can be inserted; when actuated, the handle rotates a blade which then slices off the inserted tip. The bottom of the piece features a hinged plate allowing the inner compartment to be emptied, maker-marked "Eingetr. Schutzm. 'Elzit'". The piece shows patination overall and some minor oxidation to the cutting blades, else very good. The handle rotation works well and the hinged plate moves securely from side to side.All my items come from a smoke free home! ** I do my best to look items over for any imperfections - Unless noted, everything I list is free of RIPS, STAINS, or TEARS ** Feel free to contact me with any questions!
