S.T. Dupont Celebrates Year of the Snake

Yesterday was both the start of TPE 2025 and the Chinese New Year.

Fittingly enough, Coles of London—the US distributor for ST Dupont—showed off a new Year of the Snake Collection from the French accessory company. This year is the Year of the Snake on the Chinese Zodiac calendar and around 10 companies—with more expected— have announced snake-themed items to mark the occasion.

For this collection, Coles of London is selling 13 different SKUs. None of them are new models, rather, the colorways are new. Each item features snake scales on the body and some, like the Ligne 2, have a snake on the lid.

They include:

• ST Dupont Cigar Stand Cutter Year of the Snake Black — $285
• ST Dupont Cigar Stand Cutter Year of the Snake Red — $285
• ST Dupont Slim 7 Year of the Snake Black — $265
• ST Dupont Slim 7 Year of the Snake Red — $265
• ST Dupont Slimmy Year of the Snake Black — $375
• ST Dupont Slimmy Year of the Snake Red — $375
• ST Dupont Ligne 2 Year of the Snake Black — $1,695
