This engraved silver lighter exemplifies Japanese refinement in all crafts. Dated to the mid-20th century, the vintage lighter is decorated with a chased design of a fine lady wearing a traditional kimono and holding a parasol. The opposite side is decorated in shallow relief with an allover design of foliate scrollwork. A variety of engraving techniques enlivens the surface with texture and shading, while sheer plating introduces soft color to the woman's figure. The lighter is complete with its interior mechanism and stamped on the underside with a mark reading "Japan Sterling Silver."

Includes original wooden box.

Elizabeth Krueger | Elizabeth Krueger Design

“PAGODA RED was extremely supportive in helping to pull accessory options together for the Lake Forest Showhouse. After providing them with details and our vision on how we were looking to finish our space, Laurene helped curate options that made it easy for us to edit and finalize. It's also no surprise that the unique pieces we used in our showhouse space were some of the first to sell.”
