Product Details
Crafted from precision-machined brass, the Single-Claw lighter is engineered for structural stability, balanced weight, and long-term durability. The brass surface is designed to age naturally, developing a distinctive patina that reflects years of use rather than wear.

As the first automatic lighter introduced by THORENS, the Single-Claw design reflects the brand’s early exploration of mechanical ignition systems. Its exposed structure highlights the Swiss approach to engineering—functional, precise, and intentionally visible.

• Volledig met de hand gesneden en geoxideerd: De gehele behuizing is zorgvuldig met de hand gesneden en geoxideerd, met een blauwachtige afwerking en gesmede texturen.
• Scheurpatroon geïnspireerd door de natuur: De scheuren zijn geïnspireerd op uitgedroogde aarde en diepe kloofrotsformaties. De texturen zijn diep en gevarieerd, met kronkelende, onregelmatige spleten die het verweerde karakter van natuurlijke landschappen nabootsen.
• Uniek artistiek vakmanschap: Elke lijn is met de hand gesneden door bekwame ambachtslieden, waardoor elk stuk een unieke artistieke kwaliteit heeft. Het tactiele oppervlak onthult verhoogde en verzonken contouren bij aanraking.
Hand-Carved Craftsmanship
Each Hand-Carved lighter begins as a solid brass body, individually hand-engraved using traditional metal engraving techniques rather than automated or laser processes.
Surface patterns are carved line by line with hand engraving gravers, with each piece requiring at least two hours of focused manual engraving.
Following engraving, each lighter is hand-finished through manual sanding, polishing, and a controlled vintage aging process to enhance depth, contrast, and tactile character.
Created exclusively within the THORENS workshop, the Hand-Carved Series reflects a Swiss-designed approach to craftsmanship where individual variation is intentionally preserved.
