ST Dupont Haute Creation Catacombs Lighter

Description

The Catacombs of Paris, created in the late 18th century, is referring to an underground ossuary holding the remains of about 6 million people. In the beginning of the 10th century, many Parisian cemeteries became overcrowded because of a rapidly growing population.
The idea to use empty undergrounds on the outskirts of the city was launched not before the late 18th century.
All the dead were then transferred to the place named Denfert-Rochereau today.
This particular lighter is fashioned from bronze with yellow gold hand patina. It is limited to just 66 pieces worldwide.
Before being a team of designers and creators, 2 SAINTS is a group of fun-loving friends who enjoy turning some of men’s greatest passions, such as music and motor sports, into cult accessories. Their world is broad and varied, covering everything from rings and bracelets to belt buckles, lighters, ashtrays, pendants, knives, key rings and more. These luxury products give men a fitting way of expressing the individuality of their virility and passion. 2 SAINTS also exists to help women who want to present their men with a gift that is special like them. All their collections are made in their plant in France. They make every single piece of jewelry and silverware in-house. Thanks to French manufacturing skill, 2 Saints’ creations come with exceptional finishing.
This particular lighter is a prototype, limited edition 00/66. It comes with generic ST Dupont packaging, as it was created to be the studio piece for photography, but not for the public market. We now exclusively have this prototype available for only the most serious collectors.
