Description from the seller

Thank you for taking a look! The warm glow of gold plating paired with deep black lacquer immediately sets the tone—this slim Dupont carries a quiet elegance that feels unmistakably Parisian. The edges show gentle rounding from time, and when opened, the interior flashes a rich golden hue that contrasts beautifully with the dark exterior. The flame rises clean and steady, a reassuring sign of life in a piece that has clearly been cherished rather than stored away. It’s the kind of lighter that attracts attention at auction not through extravagance, but through balance, restraint, and the unmistakable dignity of age. Please take a moment and enjoy the details below!

[Appearance]
The lighter shows surface scratches, fine scuffs, and light wear to the gold plating, particularly along edges and corners, consistent with age and regular handling. These marks soften the shine and give the piece a warm, lived-in character. The black lacquer panels remain intact and deep in tone, providing a strong contrast to the gold frame. Engravings and stamps are clearly legible, and the overall form remains crisp and well-balanced.
Please refer to the photos for detailed condition.

[Functionality]
Basic ignition only confirmed.
Due to its vintage nature, professional servicing is recommended for long-term use.
Other functions have not been tested and are not guaranteed.

[Accessories]
Everything shown in the photos is included.
For international shipping, flint and gas will be removed before shipping.
Please refill before use.

[Shipping]
This item will be shipped via an international courier service such as FedEx with tracking and insurance.
Shipping costs depend on destination, and customs duties or import taxes may apply according to your country’s regulations.
