The front, the only part visible in the photo, is adorned with a decorative engraving including a stylized eagle soaring over a laurel wreath. Below this motif, several lines of engraved text are distinguishable: \"SINCE 1977 LIGHTER WIND PROOF SYSTEM FLIGHT AGAINST THE WIND\", integrated into a retro-style vegetal frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe body of the lighter has a smooth surface, with some reflections typical of a brushed metallic appearance. The corners are softened, giving an impression of robustness and practicality, characteristic of utilitarian objects from the 20th century. The lid, also with a silver finish, is mounted on a solid hinge, designed for repeated handling. No specific brand is visible on this side, but the mention \"SINCE 1977\" evokes a style inspired by the second half of the 20th century, without guaranteeing that it is a model produced at that date.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe central engraving with the eagle and the laurel wreath gives this lighter a neo-classical aesthetic, often sought after in retro or military-inspired objects. The text \"WIND PROOF SYSTEM\" suggests a windproof mechanism, typical of petrol lighters designed to be functional outdoors. The visible opening system is reminiscent of iconic refillable petrol models, appreciated for their durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe lighter shows some light traces of use, particularly fine surface marks, visible on the lower part and around the lid, testifying to previous use but without altering the legibility of the engravings or the general appearance of the object. No chips or major deformations are observable on the presented side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis type of retro petrol lighter fits perfectly into a vintage or industrial atmosphere, whether placed on a desk, a shelf, or used daily. Its silver finish and engraved decoration make it a utilitarian object as much as a decorative accessory, easy to match with other antique or contemporary objects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed item sold as is.
