Vintage 1980 Cartier Solid Silver 925 Lighter with Factory 18k Solid Gold Strip

This beautiful Cartier lighter was crafted in the early 1980s and represents an exceptional example of the Must de Cartier sterling silver series. Executed in solid 925 sterling silver, the design is elevated by a factory-applied 18k solid gold strip pattern, creating a refined contrast that reflects Cartier’s mastery of precious metal craftsmanship. Factory hallmarks are present on both the body and the base, confirming authenticity and material integrity. This piece has never been filled and is therefore offered as untested, preserved in outstanding original condition with its complete original presentation set.
