Early Alfred Dunhill “Unique Lighter” Lift-Arm Lighter, c. late 1920s. An exceptional early French Alfred Dunhill “Unique” lift-arm lighter, dating to the late 1920s and representing one of the most important innovations in lighter design of the early 20th century. This example features Dunhill’s patented lift-arm mechanism, which raises the arm simultaneously to spark the flint and lift the wick cover in a single, elegant motion. The design was first invented in 1919 and became exclusive to Alfred Dunhill beginning in 1926, making early examples such as this highly sought after by collectors.
Patina may be preserved as-is or professionally polished upon request.
