Dupont Lighters Collection available on S.T. Dupont Official Online Store. Re: identification S.T. Dupont lighter Post by Xero » Sat Sep 22, 2012 10:51 pm It's hard to tell the age exactly, only ST Dupont themselves might have some sort of serial number registry, but they're not very responsive to most inquiries.
- The serial number on a real Dupont lighter is hand stamped. The serial number. The first gas lighter made by ST Dupont was introduced in 1953 under D57 code mark.
- Some fake Dupont serial numbers start with the sequence '4FK,' which is a sequence that genuine Dupont serial numbers never use, explains eBay. The serial number appears on the bottom of the lighter, so if an ad selling the lighter doesn't show the bottom, the lighter in question is probably a fake.

The lighter was invented less than a century ago and has since become extremely popular and available in every imaginable shape and style.
One of the first inventors was the German chemist named Johann Wolfgang Döbereiner who introduced a Döbereiner’s lamp in 1823. This lighter worked with highly flammable hydrogen gas, boosted within the lighter by a chemical reaction. The device was very large and highly dangerous and fell out of production by the end of the 19th century.
The patenting of ferrocerium (often misidentified as flint) by Austrian scientist Carl Auer von Welsbach in 1903 made modern lighters possible. When scratched, it produced a large spark which was responsible for lighting the fuel of many lighters. The evolution of this small object reflected the technological progress at the turn of the century. The lighter created a new, easy, clean and safe way of generating the flame.
Meanwhile, Simon Tissot Dupont, assisted by his sons Lucien and Andre, started a business with leather goods. The first S.T. Dupont serially produced lighter was created in 1941, during World War II. It was made of aluminium since brass was used as a strategic metal restricted for war purposes only.
S.T. Dupont owes one of its greatest successes, the Dupont lighter, to the Maharajah of Patiala, who ordered one hundred Chinese lacquer minaudière clutch bags for his consorts, each one containing a solid gold lighter. The workshop spent three years completing this fabulous order and in 1941, S.T. Dupont produced the first luxury petrol lighter.
The Ligne 1 lighter, now made in more than a thousand variations, is the best seller. The “cling” sound it makes when the lighter opens is a trademark of Dupont lighters.

Every single Dupont lighter requires six hundred operations, 300 tests, 70 pieces and over 100 hours of work. Manufacturing process lasts for around 4 to 5 months in general. Every article is unique because the worker who assembles the lighter engraves his initials under the striker wheel. These initials reflect the quiet pride that goes into manufacturing the object.
