Cartier - Lighter - .925 silver

For nearly 20 years, I have been collecting high-end lighters, and I have now decided to offer my entire collection for sale. I will be listing premium and collectible lighters on Catawiki every week — I recommend adding my profile to your favorites to stay updated.

Cartier – Palazzo Vecchio Motif – Solid 925 Sterling Silver Case – Special Collector’s Model – With Original Box and Papers

In this listing, I am offering a rare and artistically crafted Cartier lighter. The model is made entirely from solid 925 sterling silver and features elaborate relief decorations inspired by the historic Palazzo Vecchio Palace in Italy. The figurative craftsmanship and Renaissance-inspired ornamental details transform this piece from an ordinary lighter into a true collectible work of art.

The figure featured on the lighter represents the famous David statue located in front of the Palazzo Vecchio Palace in Florence. The sculptural details, column motifs, and richly textured relief decorations are executed with remarkable precision and depth, reflecting exceptional craftsmanship.

The markings on the base:

Palazzo Vecchio
Italy
925

clearly confirm the piece’s Italian origin and authentic 925 sterling silver construction.

The lighter is offered as a complete set including its original Cartier presentation box, outer box, booklets, warranty card, and extra Dupont flints. It has been extremely well preserved and remains in collector-level condition.
