Vintage 1970 Extremely Rare Cartier Solid 925 Sterling Silver Natural Green Lacquer Rare Lighter

This rare Cartier sterling lighter from the early 1970s showcases one of the Maison’s earliest oval-profile designs. Crafted in solid 925 sterling silver and finished with hand-applied natural green lacquer, it represents a distinctive interpretation from the Must de Cartier era. Cartier produced only a small number of lacquered sterling models during this time, as each piece required extensive handwork to achieve the smooth lacquer finish and precise metalwork. Hallmarks are present, and the lighter includes its original box and complete booklet set. A refined example of Cartier’s early craftsmanship and design language.
