Copper lined humidors... Your thoughts?

LiquidChaos66

As the topic states. There are several really nice antique standing humidors on Craigslist that are copper lined. Not sure what to think about them. How well do they hold levels and how well do you think they handle cigars? Obviously won't have the same cedar and tabacco scents... Not sure what my stance is on them.

I love the look and idea but in reality I would be very wary, only because copper is a fairly reactive metal and isn't a huge fan of humid wet environments. Haven't done any research but I know how reactive copper is and it's not something I would want to put my sticks in long term at least my nice ones.

My ex-wife bought one at an antique shop years ago. She didn't know what it was used for. She just thought it was neat. Used it as a bedside table/nightstand in guestroom. I can't recall if it was before or after I started getting serious about cigars but I remember at some point I figured out what it's purpose was and I thought it was neat too. I still have it. It's just a conversation piece. I wouldn't use it to store tobacco.

Good info to know! I think If I invest in one I might just use it as décor them.
