Description:
„Cartier cigarettes were a prestigious, limited-edition product associated with the famous luxury brand Cartier, known for its jewelry and watches. This pack – Luxury Mild – features an elegant design: a white background with a central red rectangle, a gold logo and inscription „Cartier - Paris London New York“. The sequence of cities on the back is: Paris - New York - Geneva - London - Monte Carlo - Munich, thus emphasizing the international and elite image.
The text on the back of the pack states that the cigarettes are designed for discerning customers accustomed to „legendary Cartier quality.“ This suggests that the pack is intended only for certain market segments – possibly duty free zones, hotels, prestigious stores.
Value assessment:
-
Collectible value: High. Cartier cigarettes are very rare in the world of collectors, especially because their production was short-lived and niche. Due to the prestige of the brand, this pack is considered a luxury collector's item.
-
Condition assessment: Unopened, but the film and surface of the package have visually visible stains and discoloration (possibly from storage or moisture). Condition – satisfactory, given the rarity.
-
Historical data and popularity: Cartier cigarettes were never widely distributed, so very little information is available about them. However, when they do appear at auction, they tend to attract interest as "unusual and luxurious items", often considered more of a design object than a smoking product.
