AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Zippo - Silver Plate - "G VIII" (July 1992) - Made in USA
Lot Description
Product Details:
Brand: Zippo
Model: Silver Plate (Silver plating)
Origin: Bradford, PA, Made in USA
Manufacture date: July 1992 (Code G VIII)
Finish: Polished silver with a natural patina from use.
Condition:
This is a used lighter with an authentic patina that gives it character. The body shows wear typical of its more than 30 years of age, with no major visible dents. The hinge maintains good tension and the closing is the brand’s characteristic "click" sound.
Operation:
Flint: Tested and working (the stone produces a spark correctly).
Fuel: It has not been tested with gasoline for safety reasons in transport and storage, but the condition of the interior and the insert suggest it is fully functional after a standard fill.
Insert: Original from the period, with legible signs of use.
Note to the buyer:
Silver Plate models are highly sought after for their softer feel compared to standard chrome and for how they age over time. An excellent piece for both daily use and to complete a 90s collection.
