Thank you for looking! The first thing that catches the eye is the finely patterned gold surface—tight, rhythmic engraving that reflects light softly rather than loudly. The proportions are slim and upright, with a reassuring weight that settles naturally in the hand. Around the edges and hinge, you can see gentle wear that speaks of careful use, not neglect. When lit, the flame rises modestly and steady, adding a quiet sense of satisfaction. Pieces like this tend to draw attention at auction because they balance Cartier’s refined presence with honest signs of time, making them easy to imagine as part of daily life rather than a display-only object. Please take a moment to review the details below! [Appearance] There are surface scratches, small scuffs, and visible wear to the gold plating, especially along edges, corners, and around the ignition area. These marks soften the shine and give the lighter a warm, mature character. The engraved pattern remains crisp and evenly defined, and all markings, including “Cartier Paris” and the serial number, are clearly legible. Overall form and alignment are well preserved. Please refer to the photos for detailed condition. [Functionality] Basic ignition only confirmed. Due to its vintage nature, professional servicing is recommended for long-term use. Other functions have not been tested and are not guaranteed. [Accessories] Everything shown in the photos is included. For international shipping, flint and gas will be removed before shipping. Please refill before use. [Shipping] This item will be shipped via an international courier service such as FedEx with tracking and insurance.
