Andalusia (2003)

The southern Spanish region of Andalusia is extremely rich in history, due to the succession of different civilisations that thrived there for thousands of years. Under seven centuries of Muslim rule, Andalusia became a cultural and economic focal point, accompanied by a flourishing architecture. Masterpieces built during this period include La Mezquita in Cordoba, La Giralda in Seville and the Alhambra in Grenada. The Moors introduced the art of making azulejos, or tiles, leaving us a legacy of magnificent mosaics with complex geometric designs. 
Drawing its inspiration from these brightly coloured mosaics, S.T.Dupont has designed a collection of exceptional objects combining platinum, Chinese lacquer and turquoise, a tribute to the brand's craftsmanship. .

The square motifs decorating these precious articles feature intertwined geometric-style guilloche work. The rich cameo of blues, using three different colours of Chinese lacquer and inlaid turquoise, evokes the jewelled enamel colours of azulejos.

This exceptional limited edition is made up of two pocket lighters numbered from 1 to 3,000, a table lighter numbered from 1 to 300, and a fountain pen and ballpoint numbered from 1 to 2,500.
