Description from the seller
Zippo original - Special Edition "THE VELIER" - High Polish Chrome finish with Engravings - New in vintage display packagingDescription Splendid, rare and elegant original Zippo lighter Made in USA, featuring official graphic customization in Italian titled "IL VELIERO". A piece of great interest for brand collectors, enthusiasts of nautical memorabilia, nautical or vintage collecting. The case is distinguished by the classic High Polish Chrome finish (mirror-like chrome), enhanced on the front side by a series of elegant vertical lines engraved across the entire surface of the lighter. In the center of the case stands out the main graphic emblem: an oval medallion with a gold border that encloses the detailed illustration of an ancient three-masted ship with sails set, sailing on the sea, against a blue sky background. Just below the medallion a golden heraldic cartouche bears the inscription "IL VELIERO", completed at the bottom with the official wording "by Zippo". The item is completely new, never charged, never lit and never used. It arrives inside its characteristic and sought-after vintage display case in black rigid plastic (Lifetime Guarantee collection), with embossed gold writings attesting to its authenticity and preserving its pristine condition. Naturally, there is the classic and unmistakable metal "click" when opening, symbol of the brand’s factory.
