Review on Zippo Tone On Design by Shannon Redd

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The photos don't do it justice!

Received an Antique Brass Zippo World Map and before I say anything else. I would like to say that the photos do not do justice to this beautiful item. A beautiful image etched into the antique brass finish conjures up images of a bygone world in my mind. a world of explorers on ships, perhaps an academic studying candlelit maps at a university a few hundred years ago, or perhaps a pirate ship captain from hundreds of years ago. This lighter will not look out of place in any of these conditions and captures the human imagination in those who appreciate a skilfully crafted product that lives up to these conditions. The aesthetics of this beautiful lighter are enhanced by its lighting. and enjoy the sight of the lights of that soft yellow flame dancing on the etched copper surface. I would suggest that this could be an attractive gift for the following types of people: * People in the military * Social studies teachers * Sailors * People who appreciate old world designs, antiques and the like. *People with class Of course, as far as the performance of the lighter itself is Zippo, the quality is top notch as expected. When closed, it makes a pleasant click. I kept it on my desk and found myself reaching for it regularly, occasionally opening and closing it or lighting it up just for fun playing with it. I was also happy to hear that it's still made in the USA. Works great with Zippo butane cartridges for non-smokers who want the fuel to last longer. I have personally used and enjoyed this with a Zippo dual burner butane cartridge.
