Story & heritage
S.T. Dupont was founded in 1872 in Paris and grew from travel cases into a luxury house best known for lighters, writing instruments, leather goods and cigar accessories.
The official US store calls Ligne 2 the Maison's most iconic lighter, and the collection page frames it as a benchmark of the house language rather than a seasonal variation.
Its identity sits in the ritual: a double-flame lighter with the famous cling and a lacquered metal body that reads as the brand's most recognisable object.
Materials & craft
The US product page describes a rigorous 300-step artisanal process and a green finish, so the object is presented as precision-made luxury rather than a mere accessory.
The lighter is a lacquered metal piece with a polished, compact profile and the tactile click that collectors associate with Ligne 2.
How to choose & style
Choose Ligne 2 when the brief is formal, deliberate and giftable. It works as a desk object, a blazer-pocket carry piece, or the one lighter in a collection that should feel canonical.
Within S.T. Dupont's lighter family, Ligne 2 is the classic benchmark; Slimmy reads minimalist, Biggy feels bolder, and the cigar tool pieces skew more utilitarian.
