The Ronson Varaflame Claridge was first introduced in 1966 in England. The production ceased in 1969. The base of the lighter was made of two specially selected cotrasting woods. The curved design of the lighter is similar to the Varaflame Jupiter which also was manufactured in the 1960s.
The removable lighter insert – the Varaflame – is chrome-plated and has a fingertip flame control. The insert is fastened to the base with a black plastic screw.
Type: butane (gas) lighter
