Description from the seller
Beautiful lot consisting of two iconic vintage Dunhill Rollagas pocket lighters, historical masterpieces of Swiss-made precision engineering.
The lot includes two variants with highly sought-after gold-plated finishes:
1. Dunhill Rollagas featuring the classic "Barley" texture finish (grain/oats pattern and small squares).
2. Dunhill Rollagas featuring a fine diagonal "Lines / Diamond Cut" finish (pattern of very fine diagonal lines). This model displays on the internal carriage the engraving of the U.S. patent (U.S.A. PAT.).
AESTHETIC CONDITION:
Both lighters are in good overall vintage condition, showing normal light micro-scratches and minor wear on the gold plating due to age, which testify to their authenticity without spoiling their charm. Structurally complete; the rollers and opening mechanisms of the caps are fluid and stable.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Both lighters are sold as "AS IS / UNTESTED / FOR REVISION". They have been kept in a drawer for a long time and currently do not produce a spark, most likely due to the internal flint stone being missing or worn out with time. Excellent lot for collectors, brand enthusiasts, or restoration professionals.
Tracked shipping and high-security rigid packaging.
