Dunhill - Rollagas (polvere di stelle) - Lighter - Gold-plated, Lacquer

Extremely Rare and Fascinating Piece of Collecting History: a Dunhill Rollagas lighter, in the highly sought-after "Bordeaux Gold Dust" finish (Bordeaux Chinese lacquer with embedded gold dust/particles) and gold-plated details. The iconic Rollagas model was originally designed by Conrad Zellweger and introduced by Dunhill in the 1950s as a symbol of absolute refinement and Swiss engineering (La Nationale). The side-roller ignition system and the famous snap-lid closure with a "click" represent one of the most famous and imitated patents in the world. The lacquered variant was introduced by Dunhill starting in 1972, combining mechanical precision with the ancient art of lacquering. This 1970s specimen showcases a warm burgundy hue embellished with a striking "gold dust" effect, featuring a unique three-dimensional texture under light.
