Elie Bleu Fire Horse Humidor — 250 Cigars
In the Chinese sexagenary cycle — sixty combinations of element and animal, cycling in perpetual rotation — the Fire Horse is among the rarest designations. The Bing Wu arrives once every sixty years, carrying with it the full intensity of the fire element applied to the Horse's natural dynamism. 2026 is that year. Elie Bleu, whose workshop at the gates of Paris has been producing exceptional humidors since 1976, marks the occasion in the only material that does it justice: hand-assembled marquetry of stained flamed sycamore, a horse rendered in wood by craftsmen whose standard is that of jewelers, in an edition of 88 pieces.
Stained Flamed Sycamore / Marquetry
The art of marquetry at Elie Bleu begins with the selection of material. Sycamore is chosen for its natural veining and the quality it develops under the staining process — the flamed figure of the wood animated by the hand-applied color, each sheet individually selected before it is cut, assembled, and fitted to the humidor's exterior. The Fire Horse marquetry depicts the Bing Wu against a background that carries the temperature of the year: the horse in motion, rendered with the precision that Elie Bleu's craftsmen bring to every subject they take as marquetry. Gold metallic transfer details add relief and specificity to the image, differentiating the Fire Horse collection from the studio's standard production and from every prior animal collection the Maison has produced.
250-Cigar Capacity / Internal Appointments
The humidor holds 250 cigars in an interior configured with a removable tray, dividers, and three humidifiers, each contributing to the stable humidity environment that preserves the aroma and condition of the cigars within. A hygrometer allows precise monitoring of conditions. The Spanish cedar interior, standard across Elie Bleu's humidor production, absorbs and releases moisture at the rate required to maintain the long-term integrity of every cigar stored within. At these dimensions, the Fire Horse humidor is a cabinet-level piece — a humidor that establishes the table or shelf it occupies, not merely occupies it.
