THE DESIGN
The Ligne 2 carrying the Empire décor — an engraved 18-carat yellow gold plate in diamond-head guilloché, with 1N gold finishes. Limited to 88 pieces in this version.
THE SOUND
The signature “cling” — the crystalline note that rings when the cap opens. Recognized in every cigar lounge in the world, it is the calling card of the Ligne 2.
THE FLAME
A double yellow soft flame — gentle, wide and even, the connoisseur's choice for toasting a fine cigar without scorching it.
THE COLLECTION
A tribute to the golden age of New York that inspired the original design of the Ligne 2. Finely engraved lines evoke the Empire State Building, magnifying the gold through an engraved plate — a celebration of artistic mastery, human ambition and the forward march of progress.
THE SERIES
S.T. Dupont's iconic flame is reignited through an extraordinary collection of limited-edition lighters, crafted in solid 18-carat gold. Five creative themes — each drawing on architecture, graphic design and the transformative nature of metal — reinvent two legendary models: Le Grand Dupont and Ligne 2. More than objects, they are sculptural tributes to the maison's vision of luxury.
THE CRAFT
Executed by the S.T. Dupont haute-création atelier. The diamond-head guilloché is cut by hand into the gold plate and finished piece by piece — a true feat of goldsmithing, produced only against a firm order.
THE HERITAGE
From a maison founded in Paris in 1872, where each lighter is built to be serviced and carried for a lifetime, not replaced.
THE RITUAL
Lighting a cigar is a small ceremony. A piece at this level honours it — deliberate, tactile, and unmistakably yours.
