Founded in Paris in 1872 by Simon Tissot-Dupont, S.T. Dupont began as a maker of fine leather goods before expanding into writing instruments and luxury lighters in the mid-20th century. The Ligne 2, introduced in the 1970s, quickly became the brand’s flagship, renowned for its distinctive aesthetic, high-quality precious metals, and refined lacquer finishes. Each lighter is hand-assembled and rigorously tested, reflecting Dupont’s enduring commitment to artisanal excellence and innovation. Today, S.T. Dupont continues to set the standard for luxury accessories, blending heritage techniques with contemporary design.
