At last week’s TPE 2023 trade show in Las Vegas, Coles of London showed off two new collections from S.T.Dupont, one celebrating America and the other celebrating Paris.

Dupont Loves Paris consists of two items, though three SKUs. The company’s signature Ligne 2 lighter has been remade to look like the Arc de Triomphe, including a cutout at the bottom of the lighter. It has an MSRP of $5,750. It is made out of palladium with gold accents. Like previous Ligne 2 lighters, it features two flame nozzles allowing it to create a wider flame. To use the lighter, the user opens the flip-top lid—creating a signature pinging sound—and then flicks the roller wheel to the left using their right thumb. This turns the flint and lights the dual flames.

There’s also an accompanying pen which comes with a solid 14-carat gold nib as well as a rollerball tip. It is priced at $4,450.

For those interested in both items, S.T.Dupont is producing 150 Collectors Set, which includes both of the aforementioned items inside of a display box that also includes a model of the Eiffel Tower. Both of the individual items are limited, though final numbers have not yet been announced. The Collectors Set is priced at $9,950.

Coles of London distributes S.T.Dupont products in the U.S. The company says it expects these items to arrive at stores in late April or early May.
