This is a very nice example of a well made, unusual Brass WW1 Trench Art Table Lighter. It has been tested and is working as can be seen from the images. It has a large capacity for fuel storage - so it could also have doubled for a trench candle (which apparently many did). A nice collectable piece of ww1 history that would make an excellent addition to any Militaria or antique / vintage cigarette lighter collection. The condition of this example is as can be seen from the images, so please do take the time to view all 12 of them before deciding whether to purchase or to make an offer on this item. I have several similar items listed and many more to list - so it may be worthwhile keeping an eye on my other items if you are interested.
