Description from the seller

This exclusive Christian Dior silver lighter features a remarkable condition for a piece of its category and age. Its silver body displays the characteristic repetitive engraving of 'CD', with a well-defined and uniform relief, without loss of pattern or flattened areas, maintaining an authentic and elegant appearance.

The metallic surface shows natural and uniform wear, typical of the passage of time on silver pieces, which adds character without affecting the structural integrity. No dents, dings, or deformations are observed that would alter the original shape of the lighter.

The lid maintains a good fit, opens and closes firmly without significant looseness, preserving the solid feel typical of high-end lighters. The internal mechanism functions correctly: the ignition responds well, and the flame remains stable, indicating that its gasoline system is operational.

At the base, the engravings 'Christian Dior – Paris' and the corresponding number are fully legible, confirming authenticity and origin. The hinge, wheel, and chimney show the logical wear from use, but without any damage that compromises their functionality.

Overall, this is an original Dior lighter, functional and well-preserved aesthetically, ideal for collectors, vintage silver accessory lovers, or those seeking a luxury piece with presence and character.

It will be sent in a courtesy box for proper preservation.

Good auction!
