Description from the seller

This is a highly sought-after S.T. Dupont Line 1 Chinese lacquer model among collectors. Specimens complete with original box and documentation are scarce in circulation. When they appear on the market, they immediately attract attention, making this a rare set that often sparks fierce bidding wars at auctions.

[Authenticity]
Engraved with “S.T. Dupont de Paris – Made in France” and serial number “F3CL02,” confirming a genuine vintage Dupont piece.

[Appearance]
Features signature green Chinese lacquer panels framed by gold-tone metal. The lacquer has a smooth, deep gloss characteristic of Dupont's hand-applied urushi technique. Age-consistent wear is visible, including scratches, scuffs, and gold-finish rubbing, mostly around edges and corners. The presentation box shows mild aging but remains intact. Please refer to the photos for detailed condition.

[Functionality]
Basic ignition tested and confirmed. As a vintage item, professional overhaul is recommended for long-term use. Only simple ignition has been tested; other functions are unverified and not covered.

[Accessories]
Everything shown in the photos is included.

[Shipping]
- FedEx International
- Estimated delivery time: Approximately 1 week (may vary by country/region)
- Packaging: We will carefully pack your order using protective materials.
- Customs duties/import fees may apply depending on the country.
