Title
S.T. Dupont – Ligne 1 "Révolution Française" – Limited Edition 1989 – Gold-Plated and Lacquer – With Original Box

S.T. Dupont Ligne 1 lighter from the "Révolution Française" series, a limited edition created in 1989 to commemorate the bicentenary of the French Revolution. Only 2,000 numbered pieces were produced.

The body is yellow gold plated, with the characteristic fluted, column style side profiles. The front panels and lid are decorated in lacquer with a waving blue, white and red tricolour flag, and gold fleurs de lis are set across the blue field. It uses the classic Ligne 1 mechanism, with a snap open lid and a flint wheel.

This is one of the most historically significant S.T. Dupont models, as it belongs to the Maison's earliest limited editions.
