Daniel Marshall’s humidors are not just functional pieces, but true works of art. Every detail is designed with the utmost precision.

Daniel Marshall: A story of inspiration – The HMS Resolute Desk

Looking back, I would like to tell you how my friend Daniel Marshall comes up with the ideas for his unique, valuable one-offs and collector’s items. A perfect example of this is the HMS Resolute Desk Humidor, which is based on a special piece of historical furniture. It was 1999 when Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, a close friend of Daniel Marshall, was the top star of the movie “Kung Fury 2”, in which he played the US President. Daniel accepted Arnold’s invitation to the set and both enjoyed a cozy dinner at the replica of the Oval Office Resolute Desk.

The Resolute Desk is a legendary piece of furniture that has stood in the Oval Office of the White House for decades. This historic desk has served various US presidents, including John F. Kennedy, Ronald Reagan and Barack Obama. World history was written at this desk. The Resolute Desk was once presented to American presidents as a gift from Queen Victoria and has been a symbol of history and diplomacy for over 140 years.

It was at this moment that Daniel Marshall had the idea to create a humidor that paid homage to this historic desk. The result was the HMS Resolute Desk Humidor, a piece that not only captures the rich history of the original, but also serves as the perfect place to store the finest cigars.

There are only three of these exceptional humidors in the world. All three were purchased by important, influential personalities. One of them belongs to Arnold Schwarzenegger and is located in his villa in Brentwood. The other two were returned by their original owners and sold at auction by Daniel Marshall. The first Resolute Desk Humidor sold for $100,000 in October 2021, and the second fetched an impressive $150,000 in October 2022. These pieces are not only rare collector’s items, but also true masterpieces of craftsmanship that beautifully reflect the history and spirit of the original.

The Daniel Marshall by Carlos Fuente XXXVIII Anniversary cigars

My personal recommendation when it comes to cigars is the exceptional Daniel Marshall by Carlos Fuente XXXVIII Anniversary cigar. This cigar symbolizes the 40-year friendship between Daniel Marshall and Carlos Fuente, one of the most important names in the cigar world. This limited edition is made from rare 12-year-old vintage tobacco from Fuente’s Chateau de la Fuente and was created by the most experienced cigar rollers. With their perfect balance of flavor and aroma, these cigars offer a unique smoking experience that is second to none.

The cigars in this series are available in two classic formats – Robusto and Churchill – and combine everything I appreciate in a cigar: an effortless draw and a rich, smooth taste. The value of these cigars is not only reflected in their exquisite taste, but also in their collector’s value. In Switzerland, these cigars sell for 450 Swiss francs each, making them a true luxury item.
