Description from the seller

That deep red lacquer with gold-tone trim is a great combination. The small Cartier emblem and gently worn edges give this lighter a nice vintage feel. It's the kind of classic design that easily catches a collector's eye.
Please see the details below!

[Appearance]
This is a vintage Cartier Paris lighter featuring a beautiful deep red lacquer finish with elegant gold-tone accents.
The slim, rounded rectangular body has a clean and timeless appearance. The small gold Cartier double-C emblem near the bottom adds a subtle touch of luxury without being flashy.
The flip-top lid features decorative metallic bands, while the gold-tone ignition mechanism provides a lovely contrast against the red body.
The base is engraved with "Cartier Paris," "SWISS MADE," and "PLAQUE OR G," along with a serial number that appears to read 782047.
There are visible surface scratches, light scuffs, and signs of wear on the lacquer and metal edges, particularly around the base and lid.
However, the rich red color remains attractive, and the natural aging of the gold-tone details gives the piece plenty of vintage character.
A charming example of Cartier's classic lighter design, suitable for both collectors and anyone looking to start a vintage lighter collection.
Please refer to the photos for detailed condition.
