Historical context

Tabachera, din metal galben argintat, de formă pătrată, a fost folosită de Emanoil Lupei, comandantul companiei a 10-a din Regimentul 50 Infanterie al Diviziei 35-a Infanterie, în perioada celui de-al doilea război mondial. A fost confiscată de la un prizonier sovietic. Corpul superior al tabacherei, capacul, este decorat în relief, cu o compoziție constând dintr-un cap de cal, amplasat într-o potcoavă, și o cravașă. În interior există două benzi elastice de culoare galbenă și un bilet conținând un text semnat de generalul Emanoil Lupei, care explică semnificația piesei. (Description from Europeana (holding institution record); details apply to the illustrated example, not every object of this type.)
