Description from the seller

Highly sought after among collectors, this Cartier “ARGENT G 30 MICRONS” lighter is a rare vintage piece that seldom appears on the market in this distinctive guilloché pattern. Its elegant silver-plated finish and refined Parisian craftsmanship make it a standout model that attracts strong interest when listed at auction.

[Authenticity]
The base is engraved with “Cartier – Paris,” “ARGENT G 30 MICRONS,” the maker’s hallmark, and the serial number “1A79223,” confirming it as an authentic Cartier production.

[Appearance]
Features a beautifully detailed guilloché surface with deep texture and a silver-plated 30-micron finish. Shows visible signs of age including scratches, small dents, edge wear, and plating thinning in spots, consistent with long-term vintage use. Despite this, the lighter maintains a strong visual presence and a classic Cartier aesthetic. Please refer to the photos for a detailed condition assessment.

[Functionality]
Basic ignition tested and confirmed. As a vintage luxury lighter, a professional overhaul is recommended for long-term use. Other functions are untested and not covered by warranty.

[Accessories]
Everything shown in the photos is included (Cartier presentation box).

[Shipping]
- FedEx International
- Estimated delivery time: Approximately 1 week (may vary by country/region)
- Packaging: We will carefully pack your order using protective materials.
- Customs duties/import fees may apply depending on the country.
