I want to buy a cigarette holder for a friend of mine who I will be visiting next month. The type of holder is the elongated (I'm assuming sans filter) variety that one would associate with Audrey Hepburn in "Breakfast at Tiffany's". She has on more than one occasion mentioned that she'd wanted one and I thought it would make for a unique gift.

My question to the Lounge: Is there a recommended maker of cigarette holders out there?

Just in googling I've come across a couple of sites that seemed, for the most part, sufficient but wanted to know if anyone here had more knowledge on the subject?

I also plan on checking out a couple of antique and vintage shops as a find might be had there.

Your input, as always, will be much appreciated.

Mine is by Dunhill and is in my mind as elegant as anything associated with cigarette smoking can be. If I were still on them and looking for another, I'd look at Davidoff's, along with Dunhill.
