The S.T. Dupont Atelier Lighter Chinese Lacquer Dark Brown is an elegant classic featuring yellow gold and an alluring dark brown lacquer finish. Ligne 2 Lighter with the famous “ping” sound that is created when opening the lid and immediately recognized by connoisseurs. Lighters in this range are true classics, transformed with a modernized touch.
S.T. Dupont has been the world’s preeminent source for luxury goods since the 1870s. Yet, it was in 1953 that Dupont opened a new Atelier or Workshop in the Dupont family’s ancestral village of Faverges, France, to create exclusive made-to-order products for the upper echelon of the social elite. The painstaking techniques first used by the expert artisans at that workshop have been resurrected for the ultimate homage to the trailblazers of the past: The S.T. Dupont Atelier Lighter series.
Inspired by rare heritage skills dating back to their origins, S.T. Dupont artisans revive unique lacquering techniques to bring the Atelier 1953 range of hand-crafted objects to life, with natural lacquer applied by hand, layer by layer, to create a perfect finish. Flame-proof and highly resilient, each piece from the Atelier 1953 collection becomes an enduring precious object of beauty with its own unique character.
The S.T. Dupont lighter is excellence without equal, with nearly 150 years of luxury history; Ligne 2 lighters are finished in Chinese lacquer, palladium, silver, or gold. A collection with pure lines dressed in noble materials and endowed with a double flame cigar burner.
A single S.T. Dupont lighter takes 100 hours of work by an artisan, with 600 operations to assemble 70 different parts. When the lighter was formed, it had to go through 300 different tests to evaluate its quality.
