c.1880 AESTHETIC STERLING/BRONZE CIGAR LIGHTER/GORHAM
This very rare circa 1880 Aesthetic period cigar lighter was crafted by Gorham of mixed metals---sterling silver and bronze.It has a squat globular form with a bronze cast dragon handle, a ribbed conical lid and upturned spout affixed to the lid with a chain. These antique cigar lighters contain no mechanical parts and are hollow. You simply fill the body with lighter fluid, then insert a cotton wick. Dimensions are 2-5/8 inches high, and 4-7/8 inches wide x 3 inches deep. This would be a very tneresting addition to the cigar afficionado's collection.
