The object displays a sober and refined design, typical of mid-20th-century pocket accessories, with straight lines and a relatively uniform flat surface. The dominant black hue contrasts with the silver-looking edges and wheel, offering an elegant and discreet appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe photograph shows the lighter placed in a carved wooden box, surrounded by antique objects, which highlights its retro aspect. No logo or brand is visible on the exposed side. The black surface shows signs of wear, scratches, and small chips, testifying to past use and reinforcing its vintage authenticity. The ridged wheel suggests a classic mechanical ignition, with no hint of an electronic or modern system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe top of the lighter, partially visible, suggests a simple structure, without frills or apparent decorative motifs. The overall impression is one of functional sobriety, characteristic of utilitarian lighters from past decades. The object is photographed closed, with no access to the interior or the complete mechanism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe general style evokes models produced between the 1950s and 1970s, with a minimalist aesthetic and visual robustness. The contrast between deep black and metallic elements aligns with the trend of classic men's accessories of that period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed lighter, sold as is.
