About the Item

Set of 4 Mint 1950s “Golden Egg” Mini Japanese Lighters – Northern Electric – Original Packaging, Working Condition Rare set of four vintage 1950s “Golden Egg” mini lighters, made in Japan and distributed by Northern Electric. These collectible lighters feature a distinctive gold-tone egg-shaped casing, emblematic of postwar novelty design. Compact, stylish, and highly functional, each lighter showcases classic mid-century Japanese craftsmanship combined with sleek atomic-age styling. All four lighters are in mint condition, fully working and never used before, and include their original packaging—a rarity for collectors. The polished golden surface and innovative mini form made these a popular novelty item in the 1950s, often given as gifts or sold in high-end department stores. Highly sought after by collectors of vintage lighters, Japanese mid-century novelties, and Northern Electric memorabilia, this complete, pristine set is a true gem of retro design history.
