Art Deco Airplane Table Lighter

Vintage 1929 Art Deco "Rondelight Junior" flint table lighter by Ronson featuring enameled black ball with chrome accents.

This very unique lighted smoker's stand is unsigned, but presumed to have been made in North America, likely the United States, in approximately 1950 in an Art Deco style. This smoker's stand is done in chromed metal with a streamlined and stylized jet fighter airplane suspended between the cast handle and table top. The base is nicely pierced and decorated with geometric designs and is accented by a molded glass dome light done with marbled colors.
