Antique Brass Bradley Hubbard Humidor Tobacco Jar - Aged brass Brass Canister

This beautifully aged solid brass tobacco humidor jar carries the unmistakable craftsmanship of the renowned Bradley & Hubbard Manufacturing Company, as evidenced by the distinct triangular maker's mark stamped proudly on its base. Based on the specific style of this triangular mark featuring the central oil lamp/bird motif, this heavy, well-turned canister dates to the late 19th or early 20th century, likely between the 1890s and 1910s. The jar features a classic, minimalist cylindrical form with a smoothly fitting lid topped by a simple, elegant finial, allowing the natural beauty of the aged brass to take center stage. Over the past century, the metal has developed a deep, rich, and varied patina, with natural oxidation, minor surface scuffs, and areas of darkened tarnish that add incredible warmth and authentic character to the piece.

Perfectly suited for a moody Dark Academia study or an English Hunt Country aesthetic, this sturdy antique canister is as functional today as it was over a century ago. It makes a sophisticated statement piece when styled on a library shelf or desk, and is ideal for repurposing as a stylish catchall for small desktop essentials, matches, or hidden trinkets, continuing its long legacy of elegant utility.

Once you remove an item's traces of age and patina it's not something you can reverse, so we leave those activities up to the buyer. We do not disassemble found art from their frames unless it is necessary to differentiate a print from an original piece of art. Vintage prints purchased from this shop could originate from any print media (e.g., magazines, books, photographs, art prints, etc.). We try our best to describe items accurately and disclose any and all flaws and imperfections. Please refer to pictures as a visual description. We want to make sure you are happy with your purchase so, please do not hesitate to ask any questions you may have prior to checkout.
