TABLE LIGHTER S.T. DUPONT "SKYSCRAPER" GOLD-PLATED (FRANCE, 1970s):
We present at auction an authentic symbol of status and elegance from the 1970s: a striking S.T. Dupont desk lighter, known among collectors as the "Skyscraper" model for its spectacular architectural and vertical design.

Unlike pocket models, this piece was conceived to preside over executive offices and luxury salons. It stands out for its formidable dimensions: 14 cm tall, 4 cm wide, and 1.4 cm thick, giving it an extraordinary weight and presence in the hand.

The entire body is coated with a sumptuous yellow gold finish and masterfully decorated with the iconic Guilloché pattern "Pointes de Diamant" (Diamond Tips) of the French house, creating a dazzling play of light and reflections. At the base of the lighter lie all the marks of authenticity: the signature "S.T. Dupont de PARIS", "MADE IN FRANCE", the maker’s punch, and its individual serial number.
