S.T. Dupont Ligne 1 Cling Vertical Line Palladium (C14021)

S.T. Dupont Ligne 1 Cling Vertical Line – the iconic pen with a signature sound

The S.T. Dupont Ligne 1 Cling Vertical Line combines French craftsmanship with the legendary ‘Cling’ sound signature. The vertical line decoration (Vertical Line/Vertical Guilloché) adds a timeless, architectural touch, whilst the precision mechanics produce the famous, crystal-clear opening sound. Whether in palladium, gold finish, black lacquer or special editions – this range epitomises understated elegance and enduring quality.

Design & Craftsmanship

The striking Vertical Line relief provides a secure grip and a lustrous finish; the edges are finely chamfered and the brass case is elaborately finished (e.g. palladium, gold finish or lacquer). Every Ligne 1 Cling is manufactured in France and embodies the Maison’s guiding principle: balance, ergonomics and perfection in the details – visible, audible and tangible.

Flame & Handling

Current Ligne 1 Cling models are fitted with a double yellow flame – ideal for cigars and cigarillos. The flame is finely adjustable; ignition is via a flint wheel. The compatible butane gas is the red cartridge; the lighters are supplied unfilled ex-works. The sealed casing ensures reliable performance and the characteristic, clean S.T. Dupont flame.

Sizes & Variants

The Ligne 1 is available – depending on the edition – in various sizes. The proportions are slim and pocket-friendly; dimensions and weight vary depending on the model (e.g. approx. 51 × 37 × 12 mm and ~130 g for current models; classic variants include Small/Petit or Large/Grand). Thanks to the universal Vertical Line design, this description applies to all colours and finishes – from palladium to gold-plated to lacquer.

Conclusion

The S.T. Dupont Ligne 1 Cling Vertical Line is an iconic lighter with collector’s appeal: precise mechanics, an unmistakable ‘cling’, a double yellow flame and a design that impresses in every colour and size variant. A stylish statement – for everyday use and for the collection.
