No reserve price - Table lighter - Brass, Steel (stainless)

A highly decorative and characteristic vintage gasoline table lighter (counter/bar lighter) mounted on an elegant, silver-plated or chromed metal stand. At the top, the lighter is equipped with a beautiful openwork metal shield bearing the inscription “Oldtimer.”
This type of lighter was widely used in the mid-20th century as an eye-catcher in bars, bistros, or chic gentlemen’s clubs. The piece features the iconic lift-arm mechanism, and the detachable gasoline unit is connected to the frame by a graceful metal chain to prevent loss. A stunning collectible for lovers of tobacciana, industrial design, and mid-century interior decoration.
