8 years.

The humidors in this collection are all from this time period but they are limited editions. You can not purchase any of them today. The lighters are just ON! I have plenty of new unique lighters but I purchased my first antique lighter about 8 years ago and I have been searching for them every since. I like antique lighters already in good condition so it makes them harder to find. The oldest lighter is from the 1800's.

A friend of mine had me try a Cuban cigar and I enjoyed it. I started investing in top of the line cigars and to keep good cigars, you need a really good humidor. One humidor turned into two and so on. Regarding the lighters- I passed by an antique store while in Seattle, Washington and saw a lighter in the window that got my attention. It was quite pricey but I was not leaving that state without it. I had never seen a lighter like it before and I have been searching for more ever since.

Once I purchased the first lighter, I became obsessed with having another antique lighter. I just started to look for them whenever I traveled. Now I have family and friends looking for unique finished humidors, lighters and lighter cutters for me when they travel. I also put the word out on a few sites.

My burl wood Cartier humidor and my medium sized brown lighter that was my first purchase.

Cigar cutters, cigars, hats, athletic shoes and pinky rings.
