This collection comes in five colors including a bright red and a fresh white. The accessories line includes state of the art humidors, lighters, cutters, ashtrays, and cigar cases, and are made from the finest buffalo leather, chosen for its gloss, strength and durability. Applying the same attention to detail and exceptional craftsmanship that Davidoff dedicates to making cigars, the leather for these accessories has been tanned with vegetable dye using traditional and sustainable methods. The result is a superb quality of finish, giving the leather a grained structure but with a subtle glossy sheen.
Any item from the Davidoff Leather Accessories Collection 2014 would make an ideal gift for a discerning cigar connoisseur and guarantees to add a touch of contemporary flair to any home.
Humidors
The leather humidors are particularly spectacular and have been designed in different shapes: the classic “Ambassador” and the timeless “Dôme”. The limited numbered edition “Office”, with a capacitiy for 50 cigars, comes in vibrant scarlet, designed for impact and to make a powerful statement. This is not a humidor for the timid but aimed at the bold connoisseur with the audacity and power to be truly original.
The technical perfection of the Dôme’s curvature is an artistic innovation worthy of the finest cigars and gives the humidors an elegant contemporary edge, transforming them into collectable designer pieces. It has a capacity for 50 to 60 cigars.
The “Ambassdor”, with its capacity for 70 to 90 cigars, has been created for those aficionados wishing to house a larger collection in optimum conditions with a tray and dividers for sorting and arranging the cigars. It is adorned with side handles as well as a lock.
The inside of each humidor comes in a varnished, exclusively selected Okoumé wood from Gabon, Africa, specially chosen because it is odourless to ensure that no external flavour or scent can permeate the cigars. Every Davidoff humidor is equipped with a state of the art self-regulating humidification system. This unique development creates or absorbs humidity as required and automatically guarantees the consistent quality of the cigars that it protects. All the fittings are Palladium-fitted to prevent corrosion.
With a lifetime service warranty, the humidors will also serve as a permanent reminder of Davidoff’s commitment to creating partnership pieces for a life of times beautifully filled.

The history of Davidoff humidors
Just like fine wine, premium cigars need to be stored in the right environment so that they emerge matured and improved. It was Zino Davidoff who first invested time researching and developing optimum ways to store the finest quality cigars. The time passed in the humidor while the aging process takes place, requires absolute control of humidity and temperature. Taking these factors into consideration, he built his first and famous cigar cellar in 1936. However not all connoisseurs have a cigar cellar at their disposal and so he pioneered the first humidor to allow cigar-lovers to store their prized possessions on a smaller scale.
For Zino, it was not enough to pursue excellence on the inside of the humidor. In 1965 he began to work with a skilled cabinet maker. These caskets were the first to display Davidoff’s desire to produce humidors fit to grace and enhance any modern and contemporary design environment. Davidoff humidors have gone on to be made by a variety of craftsmen and to set standards of aesthetic appeal which match those of their technological efficiency.
Innovation in the art and science of humidors has gone hand-in-hand in Davidoff’s opening up of the possibilities for humidor design. The Davidoff regulator, for instance, broke new ground with the first self-regulating system dispensing with the need for a controlling hygrometer.
Each humidor, like each cigar, is the product of time. Time painstakingly spent. Time lovingly applied. Time beautifully filled.
