Midcentury Modern Erhard & Sohne Table Lighter Brass and Black Multicultural Smoking Motif

This antique Erhard & Sohne table lighter is very rare. The unique flip lighting mechanism and large fuel capacity make this style of lighter stand out. It is in very good vintage condition, has been fully tested and is working. There are a few marks of wear to the base and light scratches in the lighter. The lighter has a classic MCM black and brass aesthetic but when you look closer, printed around the base of the lighter in a subtle grey are motifs of different cultures smoking, these become more easily visible under a black light. Please see pictures for details. Underneath the base you can see the Erhard & Sohne mark.
Measures about 7cm tall x 6cm diameter at top
