1930s Dunhill 'Giant' Table Lighter

This vintage 1930s silver-plated and engine-turned 4 inch table lighter was created by luxury cigarette brand Dunhill to mimic the same look as their famous 'Unique' pocket lighter.

The mechanism is in very good condition, and comes in highly-polished silver plated brass. A must-have for any dinner party.

During the 1920s-1940s, smoking was a far more ubiquitous and widely accepted habit than it is today, considered glamorous and sociable. There was much etiquette around smoking, and a good host was expected to provide ashtrays and matches for their guests.
