Antique Mamluk Islamic Metalwork Cigarette Case w/ Silver Inlay Inscription

Description: Antique Islamic metalwork cigarette case. Circa 1860-1890 (during the period of Western Colonialism in the Middle East). The case is fashioned from brass with a high copper content, giving it a very bright gold color. The inlay work is high content silver and copper. Condition is good with lots of wear from age and use. The ball clasp is missing so the case will not latch closed. There are dings, dents and scratches and a little bit of corrosion on the brass, especially inside the lid. Approx. 3" x 3 1/2" x 1/2". THANKS FOR VIEWING OUR LISTING! Please review our Shipping and Returns policies below. SHIPPING: We are always happy to combine shipping on multiples items whenever it is safe to do so. If you purchase multiple items, please wait for an adjusted invoice or send us a request to update the shipping cost. If you do pay the eBay generated invoice(s) and the actual shipping cost turns out to be less than you were charged, we will automatically refund overages of $2 or more. We use plenty of quality packing materials so that your item(s) will arrive in the same condition as they left our shop. We do recycle/re-use clean, usable packing materials when possible. If your item arrives damaged in shipment (this almost never happens) please save all packing materials and take photos of the condition of the package as it arrived. We will refund your full purchase price including shipping costs as soon as we have the documentation needed for us to file a claim against the shipper. We do recognize that shipping costs can seem extremely high for certain items. We do not add any handling or materials fees to the actual cost of shipping. eBay retains 10% of the shipping charges we collect from our buyers. We will always use the least cost, safest method to ship your item(s). For purchases of $250 or more, we require signature on delivery, for your protection and ours. We offer free local pickup, and, in certain cases, local delivery, in the Tampa Bay area. If you are interested in having us deliver an item, please contact us prior to bidding or making a purchase. For furniture and other large items, you, the buyer, should make all arrangements, including payment, with the shipper of your choice. Once you have contracted with a shipper, we will coordinate pick-up logistics directly with them. We have had very good experiences with, and highly recommend, uShip. We can also refer you to local pack and ship companies we have worked with in the past. We appreciate our international buyers and we apologize but we DO NOT SHIP INTERNATIONALLY except through the eBay International Shipping Program. It is nearly impossible for us to determine the customs import charges and restrictions for various countries. In addition, tracking international shipments often ends once they reach Customs in the destination country, making it impossible for us to confirm delivery. Thank you for your understanding. RETURNS: Returns are accepted within 30 days of receipt for a full refund of your purchase price, less shipping costs. Please note that the items we sell are primarily vintage, pre-owned objects with all wear and condition issues noted in the description and photos. The item you will receive is the exact item that is shown in our listing unless otherwise noted in the description. We make every attempt to describe the condition in detail but sometimes we overlook small flaws. If that is the case, please contact us prior to initiating a return so that we can work with you on a satisfactory resolution. We strive to provide top-level customer service and welcome the opportunity to find a mutually acceptable solution before entering into the eBay dispute system. Please note that all china, porcelain, glass and crystal items are marked with non-toxic, UV visible, washable marker. Please inspect your items carefully when unpacking them and before using or washing. Items with the mark removed are not eligible for returns.
