In 1935, a desk-mounted striker lighter was crafted. It featured a basset hound canine adorned with a layer of chromium plate, positioned on a sleek black enameled metal base. The tail of the hound was ingeniously shaped into a small handle. This unique lighter worked by immersing the wand in lighter fluid placed within the head, and then striking it against a flint located on the dog's nose. Stiker is not included.
Made by Ronson Art Metal Works it is very faintly marked on the top of the base, at the back, it reads; "A.M.W © 1935 ART METAL WORKS.
APPROX MEASUREMENTS Height - 4.5" Base - 3.9" x 2.6" less
