1970s 'Tabic' Table Lighter by Sarome [ Japan ]

NZ$240.00

Maker: Sarome [ Japan ]

Year: 1970s

Size: H 133 x D/W 65

Condition Report: Good vintage condition. Lighter functioning well. Some aesthetic wear to the rose gold anodised finish, scratching and scuffing. Slight chipping to chrome around the back edge of the upper lighter.

.

A sculptural piece of Japanese industrial design, the Tabic table lighter was produced by one of Japan’s most respected lighter manufacturers, renowned for precision engineering and experimental form.

Designed in the late 1960s and produced into the 1970s, it captures the optimism of the space-age era. Bold geometry, tactile materials, and quietly futuristic detailing.

The cylindrical body sits confidently in the hand and on a table, while the ignition button and hidden flame aperture preserve the object’s clean, architectural silhouette. It’s a piece that elevates any desk, shelf, or coffee table.

Use with standard butane, filled by removing the lighter component and filling from the underside.
