This exceptional S.T. Dupont Gatsby Ligne 2 Medium lighter, crafted in October 1990, is one of the Maison’s most iconic and sought-after lacquer creations. Finished in a luxurious heavy gold finish with rich natural tortoiseshell lacquer, this elegant model perfectly captures the refined craftsmanship and timeless design that defined S.T. Dupont’s early 1990s production.

The beautifully layered tortoiseshell lacquer creates remarkable depth and warmth, making each lighter unique. A distinctive feature of this rare model is the yellow lacquer medallion elegantly positioned on the reverse of the lighter, an exclusive decorative element that further enhances its desirability among collectors.

Dupont signature “clink” opening sound, confirming the outstanding mechanical quality for which the Maison is celebrated. Combining luxurious materials, elegant proportions, and one of Dupont’s most recognizable lacquer finishes, this lighter remains a highly collectible example from the golden era of Gatsby production.
