Description from the seller

This lighter is an original collector's Zippo model that depicts one of the biggest icons in pop music: Whitney Houston.
Design and Graphics
Subject: The case is decorated with a stylized portrait of the singer, captured in her iconic '80s look with voluminous, curly hair. The drawing is done with a stippling technique in black and white, with a single accent of bright pink on the lips, which gives a glamorous and modern touch.
Finish: The base of the lighter appears to be Black Ice or High Polish Chrome, a dark, mirror-like finish that creates an elegant contrast with the matte illustration.
Style: The portrait is framed by irregular edges that recall a tear in a photo or poster, adding an artistic and "urban" character to the piece.
