About the Item

Alfred Dunhill, a name synonymous with luxury and unrivaled craftsmanship, has been at the forefront of fine lighter design since the early 20th century. Known for their elegant and dependable designs, Dunhill lighters have long been a symbol of status and refinement. As vintage Dunhill pieces become increasingly scarce, this particular offering is a precious acquisition for enthusiasts and collectors alike. Possessing a Dunhill lighter is not simply about functionality; it's about bearing a legacy of excellence and sophistication. Presenting the 1969 Dunhill Rollagas, a magnificent specimen of refined taste. This piece exemplifies the hallmark precision of the brand, with its sleek gold-plated finish that captures the light with each subtle movement. The Rollagas line is famed for its butane fuel mechanism, which was a revolutionary advancement from the traditional petrol lighters. This model, crafted at the height of Dunhill’s innovation, stands as an embodiment of timeless style, complete with its beautifully textured finish that complements any formal attire. With tactile satisfaction, the lighter's smoothly functioning roller mechanism is evocative of an era where quality and usability were always intertwined. In excellent condition, this lighter has been carefully preserved, showing only minimal signs of prior use. There are light scratches that attest to its storied past, but these imperfections do not detract from its overall beauty and operational efficiency. Unfortunately, the original box and papers are not included, yet the piece retains its character and remains a stunning addition to a discerning collection. - Brand: Dunhill - Model: Rollagas - Material: Gold Plated - Accessories: No Box & Papers - Year: 1969 - Condition: Excellent Please refer to the "Specifications" tab for detailed dimensions and approximate weight of the lighter.

Alfred Dunhill He inherited his father’s London saddlery in 1893. Following the increase in motor car ownership, Alfred developed the business to include motoring accessories, which he called ‘Dunhill’s Motorities’. This included goggles, timepieces, picnic sets, and leather coats, and it wasn’t long before the brand became associated with men’s general motoring attire. They opened two shops in Mayfair and had a catalogue of over 1300 items. Between the 1904 and 1905, Dunhill introduced their ‘Windshield Pipe’, to help drivers combat the effect of wind and travel on their ability to smoke. This marked both the end of the ‘motorities’ focus and their entry into the world of smoking ephemera, and they shortly opened their first tobacconist in 1907 on Duke Street. The proximity to several esteemed Private Members Clubs around the Mayfair, St James’ area ensured that the venture was a success. (From Nicholas Wells With Thanks).
