Festival del Habano 2019 Hoyo de Monterrey Humidor

This humidor combines a vintage and modern feel. It consists of a cylindrical shape surrounded by a wooden panel with openwork decorations that replicate the structure of tobacco leaves, visually connecting with the top of the piece, creating an aesthetic simplicity and enhanced comfort. The shape of the cylinder aims to evoke associations with Havana cigars through its truncated tubular form. At the highest point is the entrance of the "Friends of Monterey" plantation, completing the work beautifully. The front of this piece features 12 drawers, accommodating 370 Havana cigars.
