I have both Cartier and Dunhill lighters that I inherited from Mother and Daddy. I rarely carry them due to sentimental attachment coupled with the fear of losing one. I have never received compliments on them compared to this $5 stainless lighter cover. I noticed a very elegant woman at a cocktail party, chain smoking, but what caught my eye was what I thought was a vintage case in either high polished white gold or a .925 sterling with a tungsten coating. I finally just walked up to her and asked her who designed her lighter case. With a deep, even husky voice she laughed and told me she found it on Amazon purely by accident. I immediately slipped into a corner and concealed my phone while looking for a 5 buck lighter case in the middle of a party. I only give this back story to capture how stunning this case is and I never would think of doing this but I found it and ordered it that minute. I seldom smoke, seriously, but I do collect vintage lighters, lighter cases and cigarette cases. This thing is so simple and understated that it only adds to the subtle silhouette of the case itself. It is class in stainless steel. Lol. But really to do what I did at a party with colleagues and spouses either means I have completely fell into the poppy field or it is truly crafted, tooled and polished so to hypnotize me. I know this review reads like you need boots to get through the BS but I am telling you if you want chic cheap, this is it. When I got home the seller emailed me that it came in a flip top style as well. If you bet the farm that I ordered it, you are a winner. I am telling you, even if you don't smoke it will look great on a cocktail table or even in a silver or china at edgier. 5 bucks man. You will love it. Oops. I just reviewed the seller page and the cost has "sword" to $9.00. The 4 buck increase is negligible to the what you receive. Update....use only white or black bic mini lighters. Other colors, even though only a small part is visible, takes away the sleek look of the sleeve. Still love it.
