Cartier - Pentagon Gas Lighter - Pocket lighter - Black lacquer with gold-tone metal frame

A Cartier lighter finished in deep black lacquer framed by warm gold-tone edges, accompanied by its original red presentation box—this is the kind of piece that quietly signals refinement before a flame is even struck. The lacquer panels appear calm and glossy, set sharply within the gold frame that gives the lighter its architectural presence. The Cartier Paris engraving on the base is crisp, and the overall balance feels deliberate and composed in the hand. Examples retaining both their original box and this clear contrast between lacquer and metal are appreciated among collectors for their completeness and visual harmony. [Appearance] The black lacquer surfaces show light wear consistent with age, including small surface marks and a noticeable chip to the lacquer at the lower corner, visible in close-up photos. The gold-tone frame shows minor scratches and edge wear, but remains bright and well-defined. Despite these signs of use, the piece maintains strong presence and classic Cartier character. Please refer to the photos for detailed condition. [Functionality] Basic ignition only confirmed. No gas-related comments are made. Due to its vintage nature, professional servicing is recommended for long-term use. Other functions are untested and not guaranteed. [Accessories] Everything shown in the photos is included. [Shipping] For international shipping. Flint and gas will be removed prior to shipment. Please refill before use. The item will be shipped via international courier such as FedEx with tracking and insurance. Shipping costs and delivery times vary by destination. Import duties and taxes, if applicable, are the responsibility of the buyer and depend on the destination country.
