Japanese Cigarette holder/lighter/music box/ashtray

By rollerskatingm…, 9 January, 2009
Description

This piece looks like a japanese house, the bottom half of the house is a cigarette dispenser while the top half is a music box with a small mirror.  The left hand side of the piece has a cigaette lighter that is usable and the right hand side has a woman walking over a bridge and it is an ashtray.
