Cartier - Oval Gas Lighter - Pocket lighter - Gold-plated (Plaqué Or G) with red Chinese lacquer

The deep red lacquer body framed by warm gold accents is one of the most iconic expressions of the Must de Cartier line. Unlike guilloché or mirror-polished metal, the lacquer finish offers a smooth, almost jewelry-like presence, with color taking center stage. This vivid red tone, paired with the classic Cartier proportions, gives the lighter a timeless elegance that feels unmistakably Cartier.

[Appearance]
The red lacquer surfaces show light surface scratches and tiny marks consistent with age and gentle use, visible mainly under close inspection or reflected light. The gold-plated edges and base display minor wear and fine scratches, typical for a vintage piece. The lacquer remains glossy and evenly colored, and the Cartier markings on the base are clear and legible. Overall, it presents as a well-kept example with an attractive balance of shine and patina. Please refer to the photos for exact condition details.
