The accessories chosen by smokers and woodsmen are becoming more eclectic and ornate than ever before, which is denoted by this Kerosene Lighter that's designed to highlight a vintage, almost antique aesthetic.
Coming in three color options and made from cast metal, the Kerosene Lighter is manufactured to resemble lighters one would've found during the 19th or early 20th century. The charming design of the Kerosene Lighter is made more versatile than actual designs of the time by being able to be used with any kind of lighter fluid found in smoke shops.
Coming with a small leather strap for hanging it off of a pack or your belt, the Kerosene Lighter ritualizes the practice of lighting a cigarette, cigar or even a campfire.
