## Description
This is an ST Dupont Gatsby lighter.

★Size…Approximately W3.7cm H5.5cm

★Accessories…None

★Color…Silver

Spark has been confirmed. Other functionality has not been tested. It produces a nice sound.

As this is a used item, please note there are no returns or claims.

This lighter has been sitting unused since I purchased a new Line 2 lighter about six months ago. I believe it is relatively clean, but please judge based on the photos.

(An additional photo of the back side has been added for better visibility as of November 21, 2025, at 21:30.)

## Collector note
ST Dupont Gatsby lighters occupy a middle tier in the Dupont hierarchy—more affordable than the flagship Line series yet still bearing the brand's precision engineering and distinctive spark-wheel mechanism. The Gatsby line saw varied production runs across decades and regional markets, with Japanese domestic versions and earlier roll-type models commanding collector attention due to tighter QC and original finish preservation. Spark confirmation is essential for assessment; full ignition functionality requires proper fuel and seal integrity, which degrades significantly in stored pieces. Silver finishes show patina readily, making condition documentation and photo evidence critical for valuation in the secondary market.
