This vintage lighter features an engraved dragon motif in the classic Shanghai Silver style. The bottom is marked “WHEELS,” suggesting it may have been manufactured or branded by Wheels rather than a higher-end maker. Lighters of this style were commonly produced in China and are often compared to or inspired by luxury Dunhill designs. The lighter displays attractive engraved detailing and is a nice addition to collections of vintage smoking accessories or Asian-inspired collectibles. Shows typical vintage wear, including scratches, tarnish, and handling marks from age and use. The working condition has not been verified. Untested; sold as-is for repair, restoration, or collection. Please review all photos carefully for condition and identification.
