WINNER ANNOUNCED!! Are there any low production cigar accessory artisans left in the world today?

Look Up Purdy Shotguns. You can spend 6 figures, just on the engraving, for a set of their shotguns. Its literally months of work for a single artisan. 

And you cant make a mistake, not one.

Thank you. I now know what to get Ken for Christmas.   Just need to work out the inscription.

@customsbyderek on Instagram made me this beautiful “trunk” Humidor last year.  It was a very collaborative and fun project where we settled on Spanish cedar with walnut burl veneer and ebony inlay.  Pictures don’t do it justice.. I find myself admiring the humidor more than the cigars inside most times.

I'm all about some burl! 👍

Matt at Avallo Humidors is low volume, all hand made to order.  Carrying the torch since Staebell/Aristocrat closed (or did he? Looks like the website is still up?).

I have one like this in production since last summer, really excited about it, hopefully completed soon:

I'm not sure whether it fits this post or not, but I'd like to share LaserUs.co.uk which is one of my favourite low production cigar accessory artisans. It's a UK based small cigar accessory artisan and sells cigar rests mostly. I have their wood and metal cigar rests; stainless steel coffee mug (obtained from @pandyboy's 2020 freebie LaserUs.co.uk cigar accessories event) and they look absolutely stunning 😄.

@Ryan Do you know much about the James Fox 135th Humidor in the 3rd photo down? These photo's would have been taken in April 2018 I believe. Do you guys routinely partner with Humidores Habana?

That was made for 2016. I think it was a series of 50. Nice boxes. That was the only series made so far. Humidores Habana have also made a few one-offs for JJ Fox in last 5 years or so. They do nice work and nice guys.

Union Humidors. I was lucky enough to acquire a custom one to store my Monsdales in. high quality. They do work for the Habanos festivals.

Casa del Rio

These guys have some nice looking sleeves made of Florida alligator.  Not cheap.

I would hesitate to suggest Peter James.. started small

 

Any idea if the cigar holder side of the case has individual dividers separating the cigars? I’m wondering if you put less than five in this case if they would have unwanted movement potential.

Found his stuff for sale on his etsy shop. Bought a couple of his cigar rests, but his humidors are well out of my price range.
