The Japanese Koi.
Nobody knows exactly the origin of the Koi, at least there is no agreement about it. Originally settled in Asia as an edible fish and insectivore, legends have grown up about the "King of Carps". He is considered to be strong and enduring, even rapids and waterfalls leave him cold.
A homage to the diversity of this fascinating fish!
Each Zippo has an individual patina and comes in a beautiful handmade leather case! For immediate use, 1 bottle of original Zippo fuel and 1 blister of replacement flints is also included.
KOI
Each hart auf hart Zippo design (except the "Collab/Brands" collection) is limited to only 91 pieces!
With your Zippo you will receive a printed certificate with the handwritten serial number. The serial number is also stamped into the bottom right-hand corner of the Zippo, under the insert. At the bottom left you will find the stamped hartaufhart-signet (eye of the gorilla).
Accessories: A hand-sewn leather case (robust saddler's stitching) made of high-quality, vegetable-tanned cowhide of European origin offers the perfect protection for the Zippo. I produce the leather cases always collected in small quantities, each batch looks different in colour. Let yourself be surprised what kind of look you will get!
Also included is 1 bottle of Zippo fuel and 1 blister of replacement flints.
Product: Original Zippo storm lighter, refined by hartaufhart.
Material: Each Zippo is made of brass ex works (production in Bradford, USA) and refined by me according to the motif.
Finishing: Each Zippo is unique, one of a kind, no two will ever be the same, as each lighter is hand finished and individually patinated. The design application is cast from brass, hard soldered onto the brass Zippo and then patinated. The looks of the different patinas are similar from design to design, but no two Zippos look the same. For this purpose, I use tried and tested patination techniques from the art of sculpture, but also specially devised processes to create new, unusual looks. The insert is made of brass-plated steel and forms a high-gloss, elegant contrast to the patinated Zippo casing.
All pictures of this Zippo are original pictures and show exactly the lighter that you get. These are no example pictures.
