Silver gift ware

[Linda]

I have to buy a 60th birthday present for a man this week - presents for men are always difficult

Does anyone know where I can purchase a quality cigarette/cigar silver case and lighter? Do the jewellers sell goods like that as they do in th UK?

Thanks
Linda

There are 2 silver shops in Calis as far as i know, Gurbus, opposite Josephs bar, and Eddies down by b52, don't know if they sell what you are looking for tho, give one enough time, and if you can get them in Turkey they will most likely find them. Alan

Hi Linda,
As an Antiques Dealer in the U.K. I can tell you that silver cigarette cases have really taken a dive in price at auction, same with lighters, due to smoking not being P.C.   Solid silver cases dating from the 1920's can be bought for as little as £10.00. If you get a good one with a blank cartouche on the front, you can have initials or a message engraved.  The shaped silver cigar cases are still making good money, as there are collectors for them,  however if you want a cigarette case my advise is to look in your local U.K. auction.
