THORENS
Steampunk-Twin Torque (Side-fill)
This steampunk lighter is a refillable fluid lighter powered by lighter fluid (kerosene), featuring an antique bronze–finished metal body and a fully exposed mechanical gear structure, designed for users drawn to visible mechanical construction and industrial aesthetics.
Built around steampunk mechanical aesthetics, this lighter presents a design language inspired by miniature engine structures. The construction openly displays metal components, gear motion, and metal assembly, emphasizing mechanical visibility and layered industrial form rather than concealed mechanisms.
Key construction details:
– Refillable fluid system using lighter fluid (kerosene)
– Antique bronze finish with oxidized surface treatment and mottled patina
– Large-scale exposed gear assembly with more than ten interlocking gears
– Visible rivets, levers, pipes, rotating shafts, and mechanical fasteners
– Layered metal components forming a three-dimensional structural layout
This lighter is ideal for:
– Users searching for a steampunk lighter with exposed mechanical design
– Collectors interested in visible gear systems and industrial aesthetics
– Everyday carry users who prefer refillable kerosene fluid lighters over disposable options
It may not be ideal if:
– You prefer jet-flame or butane torch lighters
– You are looking for a minimalist or concealed mechanical design
Proper care helps maintain consistent ignition performance and preserve the antique bronze surface finish over time.
