Kent Cigarette Brooch Trompe l'oel

Offered by: Bizarre Bazaar

Description
We love the humor in this trompe l'ceil brooch in the shape of a lit Kent cigarette. Most probably custom made as a Christmas gift for a dedicated smoker, the solid gold cigarette has a "lit" end, decorated by rubies and patinated to simulate ash at the tip. Marked 14K and with an inscription dated Dec. 25, 1971.
