Description from the seller

Take command of the room with a true giant of French luxury design. Standing an imposing 14 centimeters tall, this is the legendary jumbo desktop lighter, the Jeroboam from S.T. Dupont, one of the largest and most prestigious objects ever created by the Maison. It features the highly sought-after guilloché engraving "Diplomat" (Tartan Square), which transforms the massive silvered body into an architectural sculpture that captures and reflects light like a prism. Designed for a top-tier cigar lounge experience or as a standout centerpiece on an executive’s desk, it commands attention with its imposing weight and unmistakable historic prestige. Preserved in its original blue presentation box with a gold Dupont monogram, this rare masterpiece represents an elite investment opportunity for world-renowned connoisseurs. Technical and structural details: The lot includes an authentic colossal Jeroboam desktop lighter from S.T. Dupont with a thick, heavy silver finish on solid brass. The intricate "Diplomat" geometric pattern is perfectly preserved across all its massive facets. The oversized underside plate bears official hallmarks and individually hand-stamped serial numbers. It comes with its original luxury blue box from the era. Condition report: The desktop lighter is in splendid, exemplary vintage condition. The silver plating exhibits wonderful shine with only light and uniform micro-scratches and subtle aging signs consistent with its era. The hinge alignment is perfect and the heavy mechanical components operate smoothly with solid tactile resistance. Stamps and official serial number engraved under the base (S.T. Dupont Paris / Made in France). The lot will be properly packaged and shipped with contracted couriers and with online tracking. For this lot, no shipments outside the European Community.
