S.T. Dupont’s Lighter Necklace—yes, it’s a lighter that is designed to be worn around your neck—is heading to U.S. stores.

Coles of London, the company’s U.S. distributor, has begun shipping the new Lighter Necklace. It’s offered in three different finishes, each priced at $395:

  • S.T. Dupont Lighter Necklace Golden
  • S.T. Dupont Lighter Necklace Matte Black
  • S.T. Dupont Lighter Necklace Silver

While the lighter looks like a very small version of the company’s iconic Ligne 2 soft flame lighter, the Lighter Necklace is actually a single jet-flame torch lighter. The necklace itself is adjustable, so it can be set to a user’s desired length.

This lighter is a follow-up of sorts to the Hooked lighter that the company introduced in 2019. That lighter was small, though noticeably larger than the Lighter Necklace, and featured a keychain ring that allowed it to be attached to keychains, a belt or even a necklace. One other major difference was that Hooked was designed to be a value lighter from the French luxury brand, it was priced at around $60.
