This fluid lighter is a refillable mechanical lighter featuring an all-metal brass construction, a flint wheel ignition system, and an exposed cotton wick, designed for users who value durability, material authenticity, and long-term usability over disposable convenience.

Built around the traditional principles of fluid lighter operation, this design emphasizes visible structure and tactile interaction. The open circular body allows the wick and ignition components to remain in view, reinforcing the mechanical nature of the lighter while reducing unnecessary mass. Rather than focusing on decorative excess, the form prioritizes balance, handling, and honest material expression.

Key construction details:
– Refillable fluid system using lighter fluid (kerosene) with cotton wick
– All-metal brass body with a finely brushed matte golden finish
– Hollow circular ring design with exposed central wick
– Vintage-style rotating fuel cap secured by a metal chain to prevent loss
– Contrasting black flint wheel for reliable, controlled ignition

This lighter is ideal for:
– Users who prefer refillable fluid lighters over disposable or butane-based models
– Collectors interested in mechanical, exposed-structure lighter designs
– Everyday carry users seeking a durable, long-term-use fluid lighter

It may not be ideal if:
– You prefer jet-flame or butane torch lighters
– You want a completely maintenance-free lighter

Proper care and periodic refilling help maintain consistent ignition performance and preserve the brass surface finish over time.
