Zippo steel lighter, made in Italy, from 2000–2010, with a Black Ice/ Ebony finish and gold-toned engraving of a lifebuoy entwined with rope, an anchor, and a seagull silhouette, in like-new condition and in working order.
Description from the seller
this lighter is an original Zippo model belonging to a series dedicated to the nautical world, with a classic and evocative style.
Design and Symbolism
Central Graphic: On the lower part of the case there is a golden engraving depicting a ring-shaped life buoy intertwined with a marine rope. At the center of the buoy sits a stylized anchor, while below the main logo the silhouette of a seagull in flight is visible.
Finish: The case features a Black Ice or Ebony finish, characterized by a dark, shiny, slightly translucent chromed surface. The edges of the lighter show a pleasing contrast of gold/brass, which gives the object a “worn” and elegant (antique) look.
Style: The design is rendered with thin, simple lines, typical of laser or mechanical engravings that reveal the metal underneath.
