Description

Ronson lighters hold a significant place in the history of smoking accessories and their antique models are highly sought after by collectors. The Ronson Company, originally known as the Art Metal Works, began producing lighters in the early 20th century and quickly became renowned for their innovative designs and high-quality craftsmanship.   

Antique Ronson lighters often showcase intricate designs and the use of high-quality materials, including precious metals and decorative enamels. Certain Ronson models, especially those in good condition or with unique designs, are highly collectible.

The lighter seen in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off is a hound dog model featuring a striker rod coming from the top of the dog’s head.
