Condition Report
- Case: Good vintage condition with a beautiful, dark, naturally aged brass patina throughout. Displays light micro-scuffs, tiny pocket marks, and a very small pinpoint ping near the upper corner of the lid. The 5-barrel hinge functions smoothly, and the lid aligns well.
- Insert: Original insert from 1985. The chimney shows normal carbon staining and heat discoloration from standard use. The flint wheel spins and sparks cleanly. It will require a fresh flint and lighter fluid to strike a flame.
- Inclusions: Lighter only. Box and paperwork are not included.
