cigarette holders

[RVon]

Are their any ladies on here who have smoked from cigarette holder? If so, could you please PM me? I'd like to fold a holder into a story idea, but I first need some background info from an actual user. Thank you.

I never smoked, but I have an old carved ivory holder from someone in the family, don't know who. It's short and ornate, not very elegant.

Go watch some Marlene Dietrich movies. She not only smoked, but I remember her using holders of all kinds and lengths.

And almost any film set in the 1920s.
And Audrey Hepburn, of course. See here.

Now how would a lady use a cigarette holder in a way that a man wouldn't? (Well, I can think of one way, but you probably don't mean that.)

I would use one to smoke doobies back in the day. Besides providing a veneer of elegance, it also served the purposes of a roach clip. It was also supposed to keep the smoke away from you, so that it wouldn't scent your hair and clothes, and that may have been the reason it was popular with women in the twenties and thirties. But that's just a guess.

A man holds his holder differently than a woman, if he uses one at all.

I never used them but my mother did and I have a couple of them and two of her ornate pipes which she sometimes used. I have seen her use cigarette holders often, but only when she wanted to make a particular impression.

Of course, there have been those of an elegant disposition. . . .[see here]
