Cohiba Havana Cuba – Vintage Advertising Wall Plaque –...

An impressive and highly decorative vintage advertising wall plaque dedicated to Cohiba, one of the most prestigious and internationally recognised Cuban cigar brands, distinguished by its striking graphic design, elaborate construction and richly textured ornamental frame. The piece comes from an Italian specialist tobacconist dealing in premium cigars, tobacco products and smoking accessories. Measuring approximately 50 × 40 cm, this substantial rectangular plaque combines the celebrated Cohiba visual identity with traditional decorative craftsmanship, creating an attractive and distinctive piece of cigar advertising memorabilia. Elaborate Multi-Material Construction Unlike conventional flat advertising prints, this wall plaque features a substantial, multi-layered construction using wood, board, leather and applied decorative materials. Its most remarkable feature is the wide, deeply embossed ornamental frame, finished in rich reddish-brown and dark brown tones. The frame is decorated with a continuous series of intricate interlocking geometric motifs, creating a distinctive repeating pattern reminiscent of traditional leather tooling. The raised geometric decorations are particularly attractive, with alternating octagonal and angular forms that produce an impressive sense of depth and texture. The four mitred corners are carefully integrated into the overall design, while the inner edge features a delicate repeating scalloped border, providing an elegant transition between the richly decorated frame and the central advertising panel. The contrasting darker edges and warmer reddish-brown raised ornamentation enhance the three-dimensional appearance of the frame. This elaborate construction gives the plaque a considerably more substantial and decorative character than an ordinary printed advertising sign. Iconic Cohiba Advertising Design The central composition displays the instantly recognisable Cohiba cigar branding, with its celebrated black-and-white geometric pattern, vibrant golden-yellow background and elegant lettering. The upper section features a regular arrangement of small white squares against a black background, one of the most distinctive graphic elements associated with the Cohiba brand. Positioned above the large gold-coloured COHIBA lettering is the famous stylised profile of a Taíno indigenous figure, an iconic symbol of the brand's identity. Below the name appears the elegant inscription: Habana, Cuba The lower section also retains the original printed references: Habanos S.A. TOTALMENTE A MANO The latter expression, meaning "entirely handmade", reflects the traditional craftsmanship associated with premium Cuban cigars. The striking contrast between the black-and-white geometric pattern, metallic gold-coloured lettering and vivid yellow background makes the central image particularly eye-catching. Decorative Character One of the most appealing aspects of this piece is the contrast between the clean, graphic modernity of the Cohiba advertising design and the richly ornamented, traditionally styled surrounding frame. The carefully arranged embossed geometric patterns, warm leather tones and substantial raised borders create a sophisticated decorative effect. The plaque combines the visual appeal of classic Cuban cigar advertising with the character of a handcrafted decorative wall object. Its relatively generous dimensions make it particularly suitable for display, while the rich materials and textured surfaces give it considerable visual presence. Condition The plaque is preserved in attractive vintage condition, retaining its original decorative character and impressive overall appearance. The central Cohiba advertising image remains vibrant and clearly legible, with its characteristic yellow background, black-and-white pattern and gold-coloured lettering well preserved. The ornamental frame shows authentic signs of age and previous display, including minor surface scratches, small abrasions, edge wear and natural variations in the finish. These details are particularly visible along some of the raised geometric decorations and corners, where the underlying warmer tones occasionally show through the darker surface. The structure appears well preserved, and the decorative relief remains clearly defined throughout the frame. The overall appearance is highly attractive, with the existing patina adding character to this unusual advertising piece.
