Cigarette holders were originally something that women used to not get smoke in their eyes and to prevent the hands from smelling like smoke and it became popular sometime during the middle of the 1910’s but has today become something of a cult symbol and something that radiates style. Nobody who’s seen Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas could’ve missed that the journalist Hunter S. Thompson is using a cigarette holder through the whole movie? They exist in lengths from only a couple of centimeters to up to half a meter and the most common materials are plastic or wood.
