S.T. Dupont Ligne 1 BR – Satin Silver, 1990s – Mint Condition
A vintage S.T. Dupont Ligne 1 BR lighter in a satin silver finish, dating to the 1990s and preserved in mint, fully-serviced, working condition — complete with its original box and papers.
S.T. Dupont's history stretches back to 1872, when Simon Tissot Dupont founded a Paris leather workshop for fine luggage and accessories, later mastering the rare lacquer techniques that would define the maison's luxury lighters and writing instruments. The Ligne 1 line was introduced in the 1960s, originally as the BS (Briquet Standard). In the 1970s, S.T. Dupont refined the model with the BR — short for Briquet Réglable, "adjustable lighter" — a precisely engineered, flame-adjustable butane mechanism that became the defining development of the Ligne 1. The Ligne 1 BR remained in production from the 1970s through the early 2000s, prized by collectors for its compact size and refined engineering.
This particular Ligne 1 BR is a 1990s example in a satin silver finish — understated where polished models shout, and just as classic. The lighter has been fully serviced and works perfectly, shows little to no signs of wear, and is preserved in mint condition, complete with its original box and papers, making it a genuine collector's piece for anyone seeking an authentic vintage S.T. Dupont lighter.
