Antique Victorian Horn Champagne Bottle Cigar or Cheroot Cutter c1883

Here on offer is an interesting English Victorian cigar/cheroot cutter in the form of a Champagne bottle.

The body of the bottle is made of carved horn with silver plated metal mounts and mechanism. It also has a ring attached to the top so that it can be attached to a pocket watch chain.

On this fine example the metal label plate on the front has been left blank, allowing it to be engraved with the owners name or initials. Most I have seen have the famous name BOLLINGER stamped on the label, but this is the scarcer blank version!

To operate, you gently twist the top of bottle to allow the metal label with cutter below to spring out.
You can then use the “V” blade cutter by pressing the label down to cut the tip of your cigar.

After use, you simply press the label down and turn the top to lock it back in place.

Around the neck of the bottle it is stamped with a Victorian Design Lozenge that has the codes, which relate to the date: 29th June 1883. It is also stamped with the number 400089.

It is in excellent working condition, no damage and just some minor loss of plating on the strip of metal attached to the label.

It measures 2.1” (5.4cm) high (excluding the ring) and weighs 10g.
