Description from the seller

Cartier Must Vintage Lighter – Midnight Blue Lacquer – Gold Finish – Swiss Made

Hello,

I am offering this superb vintage Must de Cartier lighter, Swiss-made, featuring an elegant gold finish paired with deep midnight blue lacquer.

This model stands out for its clean, geometric design, characteristic of Cartier creations from the 1970s and 1980s.

Its midnight blue lacquer panels, framed by fine gold borders, give it a particularly elegant appearance. The “must de Cartier” signature appears in gold lettering on the lower part of the lighter.

Features:

* Brand: Cartier
* Collection: Must de Cartier
* Period: vintage, probably from the 1970s–1980s
* Finish: gold-tone metal and midnight blue lacquer
* Made in: Switzerland, Swiss Made
* Ignition: flint mechanism
* Flame: adjustable
* Individual serial number engraved under the base

Condition and operation:

The lighter is in good overall condition for its age.

The midnight blue lacquer retains its rich color and glossy finish. A few fine superficial scratches and signs of use are visible, particularly under certain lighting.

The gold-tone parts show light signs of use and a patina consistent with the item's age.

Please note: there is a slight lifting of the lacquer at the base, visible in the detailed photographs. There are no dents or chips in this area.

The ignition mechanism works and produces a flame, as shown in the first photograph.

The photographs are an integral part of the description and allow you to accurately assess the condition of this vintage lighter.

Shipping:

Fast shipping, carefully packaged and protected, with tracking.

For prompt receipt, I invite you to make payment as soon as the auction ends. If payment is made in the evening, the item may be shipped as early as the following day.

Thank you for your interest, and happy bidding!
