Who would have ever thought that a cigar box would turn into a fashion statement? Well with the invention of the cigar box purse, it has become a reality. These beautiful, historic, and classic boxes have become the latest fashion craze, adorning the arms of women everywhere. There are so many wonderfully different styles of cigar box purses that choosing only one may prove to be difficult. So why not get a couple?!

Cigar purses are usually lined with rich fabrics like suede and satin. The outside of the cigar box is often covered with vintage postcards, designer fabrics, beadwork, and tassels. Some of these box purses are so intricately designed using authentic wooden cigar boxes, that they can actually serve as a piece of art work as well. Most purse designers will keep all the original labels, engravings, and stamps on the cigar box to prove its authenticity, making it all the more beautiful and desirable.

Cigar purses are very easy to make, and you can find detailed instructions on several websites if you prefer to make your own. All you need to do is get the required materials and follow the instructions. Cigar boxes can be found at flea markets, antique shops, craft stores, and sometimes at quaint little coffee shops. Whether you decide to buy one, or make your own, you are sure to enjoy your newest accessory!
