This listing is for a vintage Ronson gas lighter, manufactured in England, presented alongside an original Ronson Service Outfit intended for earlier petrol (wick) lighters. While the service kit is not specific to this gas model, it is an authentic Ronson accessory and enhances the overall collector appeal of the set.
The lighter features a chrome-plated case with vertical engine-turned striping and ribbed side grip. The base is clearly stamped Ronson – Registered Trade Mark – Made in England – Patented, confirming period British manufacture.
No flint is fitted, so ignition has not been tested. The action is smooth and positive, and gas is audibly released when operated, indicating the valve mechanism is functioning. The lighter will be fully purged of gas prior to dispatch for safe shipping.
The Ronson Service Outfit box retains its original contents, including cotton wool, wick inserter, flints, and cleaning brush, all consistent with mid-20th-century Ronson petrol lighter maintenance kits.

Condition
The lighter is in good vintage condition with surface wear, fine scratches, and light plating wear consistent with age. The service outfit box shows expected wear, scuffing, and age-related marks but remains structurally sound with legible graphics. Lighter is sold as a collectible item; functionality is not guaranteed due to the absence of a flint.
