Antique Cigarette Lighter

By Bubba08, 19 October, 2008
Description

This has been passed down from my great-grandparents, it either comes from Italy or the Mediterranean area. It is made of solid copper and all of it is original besides the brass cap wick. One side has a man looking through a keyhole, and the other side is of a naked woman. Is this a piece that is worth something significant?
