If you use snuff properly you should sneeze.
Cases for pipes are and were used ion the 18th century. Some are
rectanglar and hold tobacco as well, but many are shaped like the pipe
itself and worked in wood, silver, brass, tin, or iron. We also have at
least one 18th century Iron pipe in our collection at work.
Of courtse snuff was considered far more gentile than pipes. It requires
also a number of costume accesories. The box of course, or a mull. And the
handkerchef, which is meant for dusty ones upper lip.
