A proper British made piece is this c.1970 18k gold plated Dunhill 70 butane lighter
After the evolution of petrol Rollalite to gas Rollagas, production moved from Great Britain to Switzerland. 1969 saw the advent of the ‘70’, a wider, more substantial model that, alongside the age old ‘Unique’, was produced in England
This example (one of the first iterations of the 70) features a very period naturalistic textured finish and remains in very good condition with only minor signs of wear to the plating
Presented in its original fitted box with instructions booklet
Very good working order with a good range of flame height adjustment
Dunhill butane gas and adaptor are recommended for refuelling
