Smoking used to be glamorous in the 20s, and while I’m not saying it should be made so again, if the activity ever had a change of a glamorous resurgence, it would be with this lighter. The $79,000 Ligne 2 Champagne lighter by S.T. Dupont is a [gold and diamond-encrusted lighter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marrow-martini).

The $79,000 Ligne 2 Champagne lighter is made for [serious smokers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clean-torch) and people who are certain they aren’t going to lose their lighters, because no one wants to explain how they lost their $79,000 lighter.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out
