A cigarette holder is a fashion accessory, a slender tube in which a cigarette is held for smoking. Most frequently made of silver, jade or bakelite (popular in the past but now wholly replaced by modern plastics), cigarette holders were considered an essential part of ladies' fashion from the early 1910s through early to the mid 1970s. Cigarette holders range from the simplest, single-material constructs to highly ornate objects with complex inlays of metal and gemstones. Rarer examples of these can be found in enamel, horn, tortoiseshell, or more precious materials such as amber and ivory. Even the title Breakfast at Tiffany's implies a cultural turnabout. A film is no longer a freestanding drama. It is part product placement: a meal in a high-class jewellery store. It anticipates egregious tie-in titles such as Harley-Davidson & the Marlboro Man and The Coca-Cola Kid. It pulls it off, in a way those other films don't, because it's original, and its author is Truman Capote, and it features a wonderful fusion of star power, good acting and iconography.

Did Audrey Hepburn smoke? She did. And not just as Holly Golightly in the film [Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961)]. Even in her private life she couldn’t leave cigarettes alone in more than 40 years. So why was a graphic designer not allowed to immortalise the actress on a postage stamp in the way that she is nevertheless remembered by many? Namely as Holly Golightly, coquettishly poking out her particularly long cigarette holder from beneath her broad-brimmed hat” , Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Oct. 6th, 2005 Such was the price of elegance. And yet the story of Audrey Hepburn's early life really does have a legendary, movie-like quality. One of her brothers was a prisoner in a Nazi labour camp. As children, starving, they watched railway wagons go by, full of children, also starving. Audrey, still a teenager, danced to raise money for the Dutch resistance. These things created a strong character, something many actors never get around to acquiring. And it paid off when, shooting a small role in another movie, she was offered the lead role in the stage musical of Colette's Gigi. Among the best-known men who used cigarette holders were Franklin D. Roosevelt, [11] Ivor Novello, [12] Enrico Caruso, [13] Vladimir Horowitz, [14] Ian Fleming, [15] Noël Coward, [16] Hunter S. Thompson (though he regarded his as only a filter, using the TarGard filter [17]), [18] Tennessee Williams, [19] Peter O’Toole, [20] Fulgencio Batista, Sergei Rachmaninoff, Josip Broz Tito, [21] and Hans von Bülow.
