S.T. Dupont and Metaxas & Sins have collaborated on a special edition pen and lighter set for their “Haute Creation” using a very distinct and technically challenging design.
S.T.Dupont owes one of its greatest successes, the Dupont lighter, to loyal customer the Maharajah of Patiala, who ordered one hundred Chinese lacquer minaudière clutch bags for his consorts, each one to contain a solid gold lighter.
Cut and crafted from solid brass, and signed like a work of art by the craftsman who made it, the Dupont lighter is a triumph of fine metalwork and the rare mastery of Chinese lacquer, one of the firm’s hallmarks.
