Vintage Colibri by Kreisler Zigzag Chrome Lighter – West Germany
Complimentary U.S. Shipping $100+
This chrome Colibri by Kreisler petrol lighter, made in West Germany, features a repeating zigzag pattern etched across both faces—creating a clean, angular rhythm that plays subtly with light and shadow.
Its compact rectangular shape, rounded corners, and simple lift-arm mechanism reflect the utilitarian beauty of 1960s–70s European design.
What sets this piece apart is its pristine, unused condition, with the original price tag ($6.95, model 320) still intact on the base.
The underside is clearly marked “Colibri by Kreisler – PAT. NO. 2671329 – WEST GERMANY,” certifying its vintage authenticity.
This piece originates from an inherited collection of unsold retail inventory.
Dimensions: ~1 3/8" x 1 3/8" x 3/8"
Please note: we do not test vintage lighters prior to shipping, as regulations prohibit us from sending them if they’ve been used or fueled. Even new old stock often requires a bit of tender loving care to become fully functional.

Bygone Goods
Bygone Goods is our designation for vintage objects — found pieces with history, character, and soul. Every piece is carefully curated; if it doesn't meet our standards for quality and uniqueness, it doesn't make the cut. These aren't relics. They're survivors, chosen for people who appreciate true craftsmanship and lasting quality. When they're gone, they're gone.
