In the refined world of collectible furniture, a remarkable creation is making waves: an exceptional cigar humidor by Arnaud Stehlin, master cabinetmaker and designer. Heir to a family craftsmanship tradition passed down through five generations, this piece No. 1 from a strictly limited edition of five numbered units has been acquired by the Casino Partouche Croisette in Cannes.
A Tribute to Craftsmanship and Discreet Luxury
Entirely handcrafted in Stehlin’s Alsatian workshop, the humidor stands out for its camphor burl veneer, a noble wood with intense grain patterns that give it a quietly majestic presence. More than just a storage piece, it asserts itself as a true sculptural object.
The Perfect Blend of Design and Functionality
The interior, made from unfinished Honduran mahogany chosen for its natural conservation properties, can hold up to 48 cigars in optimal conditions. An integrated hygrometer and humidifier ensure precise humidity balance, preserving the aromas and integrity of the finest cigars.
The design combines rigor and sensuality: two elegantly curved cast aluminum legs and a central leather-wrapped pillar support the structure gracefully, affirming the sculptural presence of the piece in any exceptional setting—office, lounge, library, or private smoking room.
A Numbered Work of Art Presented at Cannes
By balancing formal harmony and technical mastery, this cigar humidor fits within the tradition of collectible furniture while meeting the expectations of a contemporary, discerning clientele. Its dimensions (1200 x 385 x 515 mm) are designed to interact with space without overwhelming it.
We discovered this exceptional piece at the Better World Fund | Cinema & Art at the Service of Humanity Gala, held during the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, an event celebrating engaged creativity and innovation in the service of humanity. The humidor perfectly embodied artisanal excellence and timeless design.
