Cigarette Lighter case


Hand-crafted by myself

A cigarette lighter case crafted out of copper with a soapstone bead insert.

I cut a piece of copper that would wrap around the lighter and cut it to size and solder the edges together. The I cut an oval out of the copper and soldered it to the bottom of the lighter and added the soapstone bead in the centre. I then brushed on a coat of black patina for an aged look and buffed it with some fine steel wool.
