French Wooden Clog Snuff Box
This unusual snuff box is made of wood, in the shape of a clog with a brass screw fitting, with two rotating lids to open.
In France, it was the tradition that the groom-to-be used to buy a snuff box in order to offer a pinch of tobacco to each of his masculine guests while the bride-to-be gave out sugared almonds.
