Vintage Crystal Table Lighter — Diamond Cut Glass with Chrome Top, Butane

Back in the 1960s, when smoking was an occasion, this sat on the coffee table. Heavy cut crystal in a diamond and fan pattern, tapering down to a scalloped base, topped with a polished chrome collar and a flip-arm striker. Light catches every facet of it. The underside of the lever is stamped GAS, so it's a butane refill — the kind you can still pick up at any corner store.

This is the piece that makes a room feel intentional. Set it beside a stone ashtray and you've got a whole vibe going, whether or not you ever flick it. It works just as well as pure decor on a shelf, a bar cart or a vanity. Genuinely vintage, with the small marks and dulling on the chrome that come with age. The crystal is clean and bright.
