A nice vintage Cartier lighter with a silver-tone crosshatched texture and four neat horizontal grooves near the lid. The fine scratches give the metal an interesting, slightly rugged look that I really like. With its slim rectangular shape and red Cartier presentation set, this one should catch a collector's eye. [Appearance] This vintage Les Must de Cartier lighter features a slim rectangular body with a distinctive silver-tone textured finish. The front, back, and sides display fine intersecting lines that create a brushed, crosshatched appearance. The irregular pattern gives the metal an interesting texture, especially when viewed under different lighting. One detail I particularly like is the set of four horizontal grooves running around the upper section, just below the lid. These clean, polished-looking lines contrast nicely with the more textured surfaces and give the lighter a subtle geometric character. The rectangular body has neatly beveled corners and a slightly angular shape, creating a smart, understated appearance. The top has a comparatively smooth silver-tone finish, offering a nice contrast to the patterned body. The bottom is engraved with "Cartier PARIS," "SWISS MADE," a small hallmark, and an individual serial marking that appears to read "21684J." The exact metal composition and surface finish have not been verified, so it is described as silver-tone rather than solid silver. There are numerous visible fine scratches, small marks, and areas of surface wear across the body, particularly around the lid, edges, and bottom plate. Some of the marks blend naturally into the crosshatched texture, while the bottom shows additional handling wear and slight discoloration. Still, the overall silver-tone appearance remains attractive, and the horizontal bands retain their crisp, distinctive look. The lighter is accompanied by a red Cartier presentation box with a gold-colored decorative border and a light-colored satin-style interior. Also visible are the outer white Cartier box marked "BRIQUET Cartier," a red international guarantee booklet, a Les Must de Cartier warranty card with Japanese text, and a red accessory holder with a gold-tone U-shaped metal piece. The outer packaging shows age-related wear, including creases, scuffs, discoloration, and old tape marks. The red presentation materials also show some storage wear. However, having these Cartier-branded accessories together adds to the appeal of the set, especially for collectors who enjoy keeping vintage pieces with their original-style packaging.
