Dupont Biggy Diamond Head in chrome\u003c\/strong\u003e is the maison's torch-flame lighter with its guilloché cut over the whole body — cap, panels and back — in chrome. It is the Biggy for counsel who want the pattern the Ligne 2 is known for, behind a flame that holds on a terrace.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe maison's description is \"the elegance of Line 2 with the power of the Megajet\", and that is accurate in both halves: the proportions, the diamond head pattern and the signature band are the Ligne 2's, scaled up to 2.9 by 1.5 inches; the flame is a 2 cm torch that the maison rates for \"exceptional lighting on any occasion\". Press the fluted roller and the cap lifts to expose the burner. In the hand it is a substantial thing — 3.6 ounces, heavier than a Slim 7 and a Minijet together — which is why it reads as a desk object first and a pocket lighter second.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA torch is the light for a terrace, a porch and a wide ring gauge. It is also the light you cannot take on an aircraft.

Dupont, the Paris maison that has made leather cases since 1872 and lighters since 1941, for its craftsmanship and fit within our world.

Dupont began where we did. Simon Tissot-Dupont opened a Paris workshop in 1872 making document cases, briefcases, and travel trunks for diplomats and businessmen — objects whose quality lived in hinges, locks, frames, and fittings. The lighter, four decades on, was the same discipline applied to a smaller object. The workshop has been at Faverges in the Haute-Savoie since 1924, took in its first master lacquerer in 1935, and holds the French state's Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant designation for living heritage craft. We sell leather cases for a living. So did they, first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003csmall\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty.\u003c\/strong\u003e This Product carries S.T.
