The upper part displays an aged golden finish, typical of table lighters from the 50s to 70s, with a rounded, checkered lid and a clearly visible side ignition button. The whole is placed on a wooden table, with the light highlighting the mineral texture of the onyx and the metallic patina of the mechanism. No markings are visible on the observable side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe lighter's shape is massive and stable, ideal for decorative or functional use on a desk, bookshelf, or coffee table. The edges of the base are sharp, with some traces of wear and micro-shocks visible around the perimeter, indicating previous use but without altering the object's integrity. The contrast between the light stone and the golden metal adds an elegant and retro touch to the ensemble.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe classic flint-type ignition mechanism is complete and appears functional (condition not guaranteed, needs testing). The wheel, ignition button, and pivoting cap are all present and aligned, with no signs of breakage or missing parts on the visible side.

The mineral aspect of the onyx, combined with the golden metal, evokes a chic retro style, ideal for a vintage or classic ambiance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed item, sold as is.
