A beautiful vintage Cartier lighter with a warm gold finish and a finely engraved herringbone pattern. The tiny V-shaped lines catch the light beautifully, and I really like how the texture runs across the rounded body. With its red Cartier presentation box and accompanying documents, this is a lovely collector's set. [Appearance] This vintage Cartier lighter features a slim, elongated body with softly rounded edges and an elegant gold-plated finish. The main attraction is the finely detailed herringbone-style guilloché pattern covering the front, back, and curved side surfaces. Rows of tiny V-shaped lines form a repeating chevron design, creating a beautiful geometric texture across the metal. The pattern is divided into vertical sections by narrow, smoother lines, giving the lighter a neat and balanced appearance. I particularly like the way the engraved lines reflect light from different angles. It's the kind of fine metalwork that becomes more interesting the closer you look. The lid follows the same decorative pattern as the body, while the top has a comparatively smooth gold-tone finish. The bottom is engraved with "Cartier PARIS," "PLAQUE OR G," and a small hallmark. An individual serial marking appears to read "01654 G," although the exact characters should be confirmed against the original engraving. The "PLAQUE OR G" marking indicates a gold-plated finish rather than solid gold. There are visible fine scratches, minor surface marks, and signs of age, particularly around the bottom plate, corners, and edges. Some light discoloration and wear can also be seen along the decorative grooves and metal borders. Still, the detailed herringbone pattern remains well defined, and the gold-tone finish retains a warm, attractive shine. The lighter is accompanied by a red Cartier presentation box with a gold-colored decorative border and a cream-colored interior. The inside of the lid displays the Cartier signature, while the lower section has a brown velvet-style fitted compartment. The photographs also show a red Cartier booklet, a white "BRIQUET Cartier PARIS" booklet, additional paper documents, and a small gold-tone U-shaped accessory. The presentation box and paper items show some storage wear, slight discoloration, and minor marks, but the accessories add a nice sense of completeness to the set. The combination of finely engraved gold-tone metalwork and classic red Cartier packaging makes this a very appealing display piece. Please refer to the photos for detailed condition.
