Description from the seller

Original Zippo - Satin finish with geometric optical illusion engraving (Op Art Effect) - New in vintage display packaging Description Splendid, hypnotic and sought-after original Zippo lighter Made in USA, characterized by an avant-garde geometric design based on optical art (Op Art), ideal for brand collectors or for lovers of abstract and mathematical graphics. The case stands out for its elegant metallic satin/micro-blasted finish (Satin Chrome Style), a smooth feel and anti-glare that minimizes fingerprints and provides excellent scratch resistance. The front side of the lighter is entirely decorated with a sophisticated and deep pattern engraved with utmost precision. The pattern consists of a geometrically distorted chessboard in perspective: the curvature and the progressive variation in size of the squares and triangles create a stunning three-dimensional spherical effect, giving the optical illusion that the metal surface bulges and curves outward. The dense knurling inside the individual sections catches and reflects light in a shimmering way depending on the object's angle. The item is completely new, never loaded, never lit and never used. It comes presented in its characteristic vintage display packaging in black rigid plastic (Lifetime Guarantee collection), with the words
