Any Modern Snuffbox Makers?

And another Etsy coin box seller. A few members here have bought these ones and were happy. I think the only issue is they’re a little small for pinching from.

@barredbenny I will definitely keep a look out for some used snuffboxes on Ebay also what’s a smash box as I’ve never heard of one @dan11 yeah I saw that this vendor sells these types of coin boxes and as for the one you linked I very much like these ones as well do you how well these keep snuff or are they pretty much like 1 or 2 days worth of snuff and that’s it kind of box

@Lou_Bliss       Ari D Norman      in London, UK make new silver snuff boxes.

There have been  some pictures and comments here on Snuffhouse, a couple of years ago.

If you take a look at ebay UK,   item  number      272296311539  you can see the sort of thing they make.

  This one is 148 English pounds.

Better still, have a look at their website.

Cheers.

Smashboxes are very inexpensive plastic containers. Like this: https://snuffstore.co.uk/smash-box-white-10g-p-1814.html

I swear by those smash boxes. They work really well for coarser, moister snuffs. Not 100% airtight, but they will hold the moisture for a couple of days I’ve found.

@Lou_Bliss Coins can make good boxes if they are large enough. I have one made to order by Coincrafts https://coincrafts.myshopify.com/  made from two crowns (pre-decimal 5 shilling pieces) which are 1.5" across and the box is 7/8" deep. It will hold the contents of a small Wilsons tin.

@Justin those look really cool!

Wow! Those pieces all look absolutely gourgeous I hope the one I bought looks as good as those.

Those coin boxes look totally boss. I plan to have one made, myself. There are plenty of nice looking coin replicas available for cheap, so if you have a favorite coin that would cost a bundle (like I do), you can commission some of these craftsmen to make you a custom box and only look like you might be rolling in dough, so to speak. I figured I would leave this information here in hopes that it may find someone thinking like I was. About having a coin box made. With different coins than what those cats offer. You get the picture.

Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this and please remove if not appropriate.

I have purchased this exact same snuff box from Mr. Snuff years ago : https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CELTIC-PILLBOX-STERLING-SILVER-925-HALLMARKED-NEW-FROM-ARI-D-NORMAN/272300690628?\_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D20140122125356%26meid%3D2f1a6d1e4ec94397b7cecac4bfe722fe%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D272296311539%26itm%3D272300690628&\_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851

The box is in perfect condition. If anyone is interested please send me a private message.

Thank you

Those 3" Heartwood secret boxes are the exact same ones that used to be sold as snuffboxes with snuff manufacturer logos engraved on the lids, I have a McChrystals and a WoS one and they work great.
