The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A silver table lighter is a stationary lighting device, often fuelled by spirit or liquid fuel with a wick, designed to sit on a desk or sideboard to light cigars or cigarettes.

These pieces are typically crafted from solid sterling silver or silver plate, featuring brass or steel internal mechanisms and a woven cotton wick.

Authentic silver lighters generally feature hallmark stampings or makers marks indicating silver purity and manufacture year, alongside signs of hand-finishing on internal screw threads.

It can be placed on a dark wood desk, bookshelf, or tray as a tactile metallic accent piece within a study or living area.

Gently polish the silver surface using a specialised silver polishing cloth and liquid cleaner, avoiding prolonged exposure to moisture or harsh chemical abrasives.
