Limited Edition L2 “HODINKEE”
“There are lighters, and there are S.T. Dupont lighters. S.T. Dupont creates finely crafted tools that produce a perfect, gentle flame. To call it a lighter simply wouldn’t do it justice. We’ve partnered with S.T. Dupont to produce a limited edition lighter in Palladium, lacquered in our signature shade of HODINKEE grey”.
Of course there’s the audible “ping” that has come to characterize opening the S.T. Dupont lighter, but the HODINKEE limited edition version carries over more than precise mechanical engagement; it draws inspiration from the quintessential lighters S.T. Dupont was making in the 1940s-1960s. The iconic lines, a carefully machined flint wheel, and a gorgeous lacquer finish are all hallmarks of classic S.T. Dupont styling that have made their way into this edition.
The Ligne 2 for HODINKEE comes in specially made packaging inspired by archival examples of Dupont packaging from the mid-1900s. The minimal linen clamshell box perfectly complements the lighter itself, solidifying this edition as the best of both worlds: vintage aesthetics combined with modern engineering and reliability.
The S.T. Dupont Ligne 2 Limited Edition Lighter for HODINKEE is available exclusively in the HODINKEE Shop.
