S.T. Dupont - Ligne 1 - Lighter - Silver plated

The S.T. Dupont Ligne 1 lighter in Legrand version presents an overall good condition, with visible signs of use consistent with its age, but maintaining full functionality and appeal.

The body shows the characteristic metal finish with a diamond-point pattern, which retains good definition on most of the surface. However, homogeneous wear is evident on the edges and more exposed areas, where the plating has lost intensity, especially on the edges, corners, and upper perimeter. These marks are typical of continued use and add an authentic patina that reflects its history.

On the main planes there are micro-scratches and small wear spots, with no structural dents or deformations, indicating the piece has been used but properly preserved. The lateral ignition mechanism shows wear on the grooves, though it maintains correct and firm operation.

The cap opens and closes properly, with correct alignment, and the ignition is functional, as shown in the images. The bottom displays more evident marks, including scratches around the fill screw, common in this type of piece due to handling for maintenance.

Overall, this is an original lighter with a very attractive vintage aesthetic, preserving its structural integrity and function, showing normal signs of use that do not affect its performance and are consistent with its status as a classic piece.

It will be shipped in a courtesy box for proper conservation.

Happy bidding!
