Description
You are bidding on a full-size Zippo lighter with a fancy silver outer sleeve. The lighter itself was made in USA and dates to 2012, and the silver outer sleeve probably dates to the 1950s or 1960s. I could not find any markings on the sleeve indicating its silver content or country of origin, but I believe it was made in Siam (now Thailand), and is made of coin silver. The sleeve features a very fancy filigree floral design as well as bas-relief images of a Siamese temple on one side and a Siamese deity on the other side. The outer sleeve is removable from the lighter (See pictures). The lighter is in excellent condition overall, showing signs of normal pocket carry. The hinge has a slight wobble. Needs only flint and fluid to work. You can own this great vintage coin silver lighter, for $169.99.
