S.T. Dupont - Diamond tip - No Reserve Price - Lighter - Gold-plated

Rare and authentic S.T. Dupont Paris Line 1 large table lighter, an iconic collectible piece produced in the 1970s.
Covered with a 20-micron gold plating, it features a guilloché engraving with a diamond head pattern, typical of the traditional craftsmanship of Maison Dupont.

This model is the large table lighter, more imposing and more prestigious than the pocket versions. It was intended to adorn a management office, a private lounge, or a smoking room.

Operation
Mechanical wheel ignition, powered by butane gas.
Original mechanism, perfectly functional: straightforward ignition and stable flame.
It is typical of the first Line 1: a soft closure that predates the well-known 'cling' of Line 1.

Condition of preservation
Very good overall condition, with slight signs of use appropriate for its age.
No shocks, no deformations.
Deeply clear and uniform guilloché motif.
Fluid mechanism, firm and precise cover.
Original engraved base: S.T. Dupont – Paris – Made in France + visible serial number.
Plating or maintaining its shine, with an even and elegant patina.
Unrestored piece, entirely authentic.
