What: World War I cigar box at Tantra Arts, shop no. 5057, Main Bazaar, opposite Vivek Hotel, Paharganj, call 9350837431, Rs 5,000
Why: Have a cigar, why don’t you. No? Try one. Okay, seriously just pretend like you want one, so we can show off our newly acquired cigar box that dates back to World War 1. Found in a jumbled antique store, this brass cigar case (can also be used for trinkets) is engraved with the words “Merry Christmas”, supposedly a holiday gift from England’s Queen Mary to her soldiers at the front. Battle sigh!
When: You need to make a case for smoking.
