S.T. Dupont is perhaps best known for its ultra-luxurious writing instruments, leather goods, and smoking accessories, but its new one-of-its-kind rendition of the Montgolfière hot-air balloon ascension may be its most incredible product yet. The replica of the Montgolfière hot-air balloon may just look like an intricate display piece, but the item also features a distinct luxe cigar lighter.
Modeled after the Palace of Versailles, the cigar lighter rests just underneath the Montgolfière hot-air balloon. The lighter is crafted from 24-karat-gold and features 110 inset pavé diamonds worth 3.85 carats. The resplendent lighter isn't the only luxe thing included in this piece, as the hot-air balloon features blue porcelain, 24-karat gold, 18-karat gold, and various other ornamentations.
