AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This vintage Ceto brand lighter is presented in its original case, with "CETO" in gold lettering and the mention "BUTANE LIGHTER" inside the lid. The object is visible in an open position, resting on a bright red inner casing, highlighting its sleek and rectilinear design.

The lighter itself has an elongated, rectangular shape, characteristic of vintage models from the 1970s. Its main surface has a brushed appearance, evoking a matte metallic finish, while golden elements highlight the bottom tip and the side ignition button. This contrast between the brushed surface and the gold details accentuates the object's elegant and minimalist style.

The visible face of the lighter has no additional inscriptions or decorations, which reinforces its sober and timeless aesthetic. The ignition button is positioned laterally, is rectangular in shape, with a grooved relief for a better grip. The entire object exudes an impression of quality and refinement, typical of smoking accessories from that period.

The original black case is designed to protect and present the lighter. The gold lettering inside the lid, perfectly legible, attests to the brand and type of operation of the lighter (butane). The interior is lined with red fabric, adding a touch of luxury and visual contrast.

This model, by its style and finishes, is fully in line with the vintage trend, and will be perfect for everyday use or as a decorative object on a desk or shelf.
