AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Thank you for checking this out! The heavily aged silver-tone finish, hand-applied wing motif, and visible No.2101 marking immediately stand out in the photos. Pieces like this always catch my eye because the wear and patina have developed naturally over time. The sculptural wing decoration and strong vintage character make it an interesting piece that tends to attract attention in collections. Please see the details below!

[Appearance]

This vintage lighter features a distinctive wing-shaped metal ornament attached across the front and lower body. The silver-tone finish has developed a rich aged appearance, giving the piece a rugged and well-used character. The engraved "TBC Angels" marking and side serial number "No.2101" add additional visual interest.

There is noticeable surface wear throughout, including scratches, rubbing, oxidation, discoloration, plating loss, and age-related marks across the body. Edge wear and finish deterioration are visible on multiple surfaces. While these signs of use are significant, they contribute to the authentic vintage atmosphere and highlight the lighter's long history. The wing ornament remains firmly attached and continues to create a striking visual presence.

Overall, this is a character-rich vintage piece with strong display appeal.

Please refer to the photos for detailed condition.
