Elie Bleu J15 Red Lacquer Pocket Lighter

The J15 in red lacquer is Elie Bleu’s pocket lighter at its most distilled — no motif, no marquetry, just deep saturated red and the proportions of a piece that has been refined for nearly fifty years. A statement of confident restraint, and the most versatile lighter in the J15 lineup.

Functionally, the J15 is built to the same standard as every other piece in the range. The exclusive Cigar Diamond Jet Burner system produces a single rigid flame engineered specifically for cigar ignition. Dustproof slide-resistance ignition, a 1.5-gram visible-tank butane reservoir, and ultra-durable anti-UV lacquer ensure the finish and the function both age well.

At 6.8 × 3.65 cm and hand-finished in France since 1976, the J15 Red Lacquer is the entry point into Elie Bleu’s pocket lighter craftsmanship — and the one that makes the strongest case for the rest.
