LIGNE 2 - LACQUERED LIGHTER MAKI-E BROWN DRAGON

1 ITEM LEFT IN STOCK

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 CRAFT

S.T. Dupont celebrates the ancestral Japanese art of Maki-e. Hand-decorated by the maison’s partner artisans of Wajimaya Zenni in Japan, each piece is adorned with gold powder, palladium and mother-of-pearl over rich lacquer — and signed “Zenni.” Weeks of work; no two identical.

THE RITUAL

The Dragon collection symbolizes strength, prosperity and harmony — the dragon coiling across the lacquer amid swirling clouds. Light a cigar with this and you’re signaling command, refinement, and an understanding that true luxury is earned, not bought.
