Circa 1920s - 30s Set of buying Three Larger Bakelite Cigar Holders

amber 3 1/2” x 5/8”
“square” holder (dark ruby red) 2 1/2” x 3/4”
Two-tone “wood & black 3 1/4” x 5/8”



This is a collection of three circa 1920s / 30s small Bakelite cigar holders.

Bakelite was the first thermosetting plastic invented in 1907. It was used to create everything from jewelry to radio cases, cigar holders, toys and more.

These cigar holders are getting buying harder to find and I stumbled across a collection of six of these on a picking trip to Virginia. I've broken the set into three small size holders and these three larger ones.

The orange bakelite holder is a somewhat rare color it features a brass tip ring. The "square" bakelite piece is a bit rarer in terms of the dark ruby red color and the two-tone amber and "wood" piece is also fairly rare.

If you're interested in purchasing the entire collection of six pieces, get in touch and let's make a deal!

These three are offered at a very reasonable price of $125.00 for the set of three. I've seen similarly sized pieces sell for upwards of $50 to $75 a piece. I think if you collect tobacciana, or cigar holders, or bakelite, these are a great addition to your collection!
