Description from the seller
Lot of 2 S.T. Dupont Lighters - "Laque de Chine" (Chinese Lacquer) - Blue & Black - Working
Description of the Item
Splendid lot consisting of two iconic lighters from the prestigious French maison S.T. Dupont, both made with authentic and rare Chinese lacquer (Laque de Chine). These pieces represent the excellence of Parisian craftsmanship, combining the durability of precious metal with the depth of natural lacquer.
Lot Details:
• Specimen 1 (Blue): Model Ligne 2 (taller) in midnight blue lacquer with gold-plated trims.
• Specimen 2 (Black): Model Ligne 1 / Gatsby in deep black lacquer with gold-plated trims.
• Material: Both bear the authentic leaf ideogram symbol, certifying the use of real plant lacquer sourced from the lacquer tree.
• Technical Conditions: Both lighters are perfectly functional with signs of wear consistent with their age. The valves hold gas and the ignition mechanism is smooth and precise.
• Aesthetic Conditions: Good vintage condition. They show light and normal wear on the plating, typical of age, which adds character to the pieces without compromising their elegance. The lacquer is intact and crack-free.
• Stamping: Original bases with inscriptions "S.T. Dupont Paris - Made in France" and individually engraved serial numbers (BRY997 and U4FG27).
Additional Notes:
The lighters are sold without original box and without documents. They will be shipped with adequate protective packaging and via tracked and insured shipping.
