Fantastic metal table lighter shaped like a helicopter (styled after a Hughes/MD 500-type light chopper)
Silver-tone metal body with a brushed pewter/chrome finish and natural age patina throughout. Detailed die-cast body with paneled fuselage, riveted seams, and framed cabin windows; twin main rotor blades and a tail rotor/fin at the rear. Mounted on skid landing gear, with the lighter mechanism (flint wheel and fuel adjustment screw) built into the underside between the skids. A fun mechanical desk piece and collectible for lighter or aviation memorabilia collectors. Would look great on a coffee table, styled on a shelf or displayed with a collection of other table lighters.
Several other table lighters available in separate listings.
Located at our Los Angeles Gallery.
