Cigarette Case - Artifacts

Description
Cigarette case with lid. Both pieces are rectangular shaped boxes made of twine (waxed linen?) twined over upright stakes. The central section of both boxes is made of twill weave creating a zig-zag pattern outlined with black bands at top and bottom. The twine is a natural beige color, dyed brown for the zig-zag pattern and black for the bands. The case would be made over a mold and was coated with shellac to stiffen it.
