Awaiting your purchase is a beautiful Thai sterling-silver-cased Ronson Whirlwind cigarette lighter (made in England), the outer niello casing made by the royal jewelers of Thailand, Thai Nakon of Bangkok. It is decorated in traditional Thai patterns with a seated Buddha to one side and a vacant cartouche to the other. This lighter was found with the cigarette case (see my other listings) that was given as a gift by the Prime Minister of Thailand, Field-Marshal P. Pibulsonggram (Plaek ...Phibunsongkhram) but, unlike the cigarette case, bears no identifying inscription. This rare item remains in excellent near mint condition and bears no monograms. See my other listings for the related cigarette case.
