S.T. Dupont presents a reimagined and iconic skull design with philosophical meaning, creating a potent symbol serving as a reminder to embrace the preciousness of life and to live each moment to the fullest. This philosophy is eloquently captured in the words of Pierre de Ronsard, a 16th century French poet, who encouraged, "Live, if you believe me, don't wait until tomorrow. Pick the roses of life today."
In Latin, 'Memento Mori' translates to 'remember that you must die' and has been a Latin phrase used for centuries to designate an artistic style where all creation is born with the objective of reminding humans of their mortality. The Memento Mori collection encapsulates the duality of life and death, merging edgy aesthetics with profound meaning.
Natural Lacquer
S.T. Dupont's artisans add layers of natural lacquer to the engraved lighter in a month's long process involving many applications and polishing to impart depth and mystery to each finish. The result is a collection of precious, hand lacquered lighters of exceptional beauty.
Details
The top of each lighter is adorned with the S.T. Dupont logo and the ignition roller is engraved with 24 grooved lines to enhance grip when igniting your iconic Line 2 soft-flame lighter. Each lighter opens to the echo of S.T. Dupont’s ‘perfect ping’.
