The Charles London 1947 Pocket Petrol Lighter Guilloche Plated Sterling Silver
Located in Miami, FL
The Charles petrol lighter designed by Meyer Maximilian Levene
An exceptional and rare silver-plated 'The Charles' petrol pocket lighter stamped 'The Charles Lighter', made in London England, back in the 1947. It was rafted with slim rectangular form, decorated with engine-turned casing, double entry hinged lids with innovative internal mechanical features, including a revolving flint tube to provide even wear to the flint, and a rear barrel containing spare flint chambers so that semi-automatic loading of the spare flint can be undertaken. The Charles Lighter has an extremely complicated mechanism. The flint rotates while grinded by the friction wheel. Also interesting is the revolving magazine for spare flints. A fine example of complete over-engineering. This was made only for a very short period and was patented by Meyer Maximilian Levene in 1949.
Weight: 70.50 Grams, (45.19 Dwt).
Measurements: 48 mm by 43 mm by 12 mm (1.89 x 1.69 x 0.77 Inches).
Hallmarks: Stamped with the maker's mark and signed in full, "THE CHARLES LIGHTER MADE IN ENGLAND BRITISH & DOMINION & FOREIGN PAT GRANTED.".

Art Nouveau Sterling Silver Match Safe, Indian Head, American, circa 1905
Located in Incline Village, NV
Listed is a fine quality American, Art Nouveau sterling silver match safe in repousse relief, featuring an Indian chief with elaborate full regalia headdress decoration. It has a hinged top, and a nicely detailed match strike to the bottom. A monogram with non discernible initials completes the decoration on the reverse side (could be "J.T.L."---just a guess).
It is marked "Sterling" on the inside storage compartment where matches are kept (see image). The image is indicative, and exactly the same as an Unger Brothers pattern, so probably by them. Unger Brothers of Newark, New Jersey sometimes sold their molds to the likes of Gorham and other nearby silver makers, so could also be by one of those silver makers. The American Indian was still a popular subject at the turn of the century; probably circa 1905 manufacture.
Dimensions: 2 5/16" high x 1 3/4" wide x 1/2" deep
This match safe is in excellent all original condition with no restoration of any kind. There are no dents. It has a few minor scratches.
Match safes were popular from 1870 through 1920 and were used to keep wooden friction matches dry and contained so that they would not rub together and combust prematurely in one's pocket. The wooden match wood be struck against the ribbed surface at the bottom to ignite (see image). The advent of matchbooks and the popularity of the cigarette lighter in the 1920s brought about the demise of the match safe.
Provenance: This particular piece is from the George Cross collection. George died in 2007 and was known for his discerning quest for quality and rarity. He collected saloon items and Western...

Art Nouveau "Nude" Sterling Silver Match Safe, circa 1890s
Located in Incline Village, NV
Listed is a fine quality Art Nouveau sterling silver match safe in repousse relief. It is typical of risque bar items used at the turn of the century; depicting as the central theme on one side, an attractive nude female being adored and pursued by a multiplicity of male suitors with an elaborate floral design framing the subject. The other side is either etched monogrammed (looks like "EBS Jack" but difficult to make out letters) or filigree design, again, framed with identical elaborate floral design. It is marked "Sterling" on the inside storage compartment where matches are kept (see image).
Of American manufacture (no identifying mark) although companies like Gorham, Tiffany and Unger were known to produce such objects. This match safe is in excellent all original excellent condition with no restoration of any kind.
