1880s Oak Humidor

[Ed Monton]

This interests me but I think its just too small to be very useful. Plus, it would have to be lined with spanish cedar. Also, not sure how well it would seal. Any thoughts?

Appears in good shape. Original brass and all. If you are into antique's then I would say go for it. You can always add the Spanish cedar and do a little seal work if needed. True not many cigars it will hold (maybe just very special ones) but still a nice little conversation peace.

Appears bigger in the picture then the stated size.

That looks like a great project. Shouldn't be too tough to line and make it seal. I say go for it, and it would look great with a desktop sitting on top as well.

Interesting piece of antiquity

Definately a sweet humi!

It could be as simple as just lining the bottom of each drawer with the pieces of cedar that come out of cigar boxes.
