$299.99
This is a rare hybrid lighter featuring a genuine 1940s Zippo insert paired with a mid‑century Italian 800 silver lighter case. The case is confirmed solid 800 silver (not plated) and weighs 27.54 grams, with an engraved pattern and classic European craftsmanship. The insert is stamped PAT. 2032695, used by Zippo from 1941–1950, and fits the case perfectly.
This piece comes from an estate and has been left 100% untouched. No polishing, no restoration, no added fuel or flint. Collectors prefer original patina and authentic wear, and this lighter has exactly that—clean, honest age without any modern refinishing.
The lid opens and closes smoothly and the insert is fully functional once a flint and fuel are added. The silver case shows natural patina and light wear consistent with age, with the interior clearly stamped ITALY and 800 under magnification.
A rare opportunity to own a vintage Zippo insert housed in a genuine Italian silver case—an uncommon combination sought after by lighter collectors, silver collectors, and mid‑century design enthusiasts.
