Extremely Rare and Beautiful Lighter - Restoration

  • Hello everybody!🖐 The Restorer is with you again.🔥😎
    I want to share with you my next video of the restoration of a very beautiful and unique lighter, which surprised me greatly. This unique lighter was handmade a long time ago. I came to this conclusion after examining the surface of the lighter, it is damaged by time and use. There are minor notches, chips and shells on the surface of the metal. On its surface there is a mystical "duck" icon with an ornament. What could it mean and who made it? If you know, write in the comments. I am very interested. The body of this beautiful gasoline lighter is decorated with a material unknown to me, it looks like a composite material, strong wood, or bakelite. I don't know exactly what it is. The person who gave me this rare lighter said that it could have been made by the prisoners in the prison and that the symbol of the duck on it means something in the language of the prisoners. My guess is that this ancient lighter is over 100 years old. If you have information or guesses about the origin, age, and historical value, please write in the comments. It will be interesting to learn more.
    I hope you liked the result!
    Also, do not forget to rate my work in the comments from 1 to 10.😉

      I give it a nine! The quality of the work is wonderful and I loved seeing the various parts cleaned, restored, polished and brought back into perfect working order.
      The only reason I didn't give it a 10 is the lack of background and dialog explaining what the restorer did and why he chose to do it "that way".
      I'm a history enthusiast and would have liked to know when these lighters first became available and how much they cost when new as opposed to what they're selling for now.
      And why is it called a "gasoline" lighter?

    I've seen a lighter like that before at a gun show. I was told it's a commemorative lighter for the duck hunters assoc. in 1930s England sponsored by the Parker shotgun co (now owned by Remington). Apparently Teddy Roosevelt received one after a duck hunting expedition. I'm not sure if that's accurate, but it does fit.

    I give it a 10. Beautiful restoration. I don't understand how folks are saying it's fake 🤔 it's definitely not like one of those carpet restorations where they pull a carpet out of their back yard after covering it with mud and dirt and call it a restoration. Your work is beautiful! And folks saying it's boring, you mispronounced relaxing. This stuff puts me to sleep because it's so chill and fun to watch.

    • @jasonjulian1
      @jasonjulian1 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      Probably calling it fake because most of the corrosion was the wrong color to be as old as claimed, and there is no way that cotton wading would come out that clean. It would absolutely have corrosion staining and darkening on it.
      Plus rust and corrosion on the wood (possible plastic) parts of the lighter body? No extreme putting of the metal? The thin wire spring would be metal dust and debris given the exterior corrosion as well.
      Very suspicious.

    So corroded that all the screw threads came undone with nice clean threads. I also noticed your first squirts of oil knocked off most of the corrosion.

    Is that the olympic rings that are engraved into the duck? If so, this lighter might be connected to the 1928 olympic games. The Australian sculler, Bobby Pearce, slowed down to let a duck and her ducklings cross the canal they were racing on... in the middle of the race! 🙂

      Just been reading up on MrBobby Pearce.. well worth a look. Only lost one race, (finished 2nd) an under 16s' event, he was 6! went on to win everything else he entered in his lifetime!
      the Duck race; the competitor he was up against went 5 lengths clear and was still beaten by 30 seconds... He held a world record for something like 40 years, only beaten in 1979... An astonishing guy. Would be a nice story if the lighter was in commeneration of the events of that race in the 1928 Olympics. The style of the lighter looks about right for that date?? 🤩🤩

    The spring loaded dousing cap was introduced in the 1930s. However, the sandwiching of materials here in the lighter body is something I see more commonly in 1970s. I would say maybe early 1970s. Back in the day, you could purchase such lighters at a jeweller and they would add a custom commemorative plaque such as the duck for the avid duck hunter.

    Ukrainian/Russian/Eastern European style lighter from 1930-50's. The Duck motif is stainless steel or aluminium? Its a very satisfying video. The restorer's ability is very good. This is the first ever restoration video i have seen and am most happy to rate this video 7/10. Congratulations.

    The flint spring and the interior cotton were brand new as well as the threads on the screws. You've artificially rusted this by coating it in salt and water. Just so you have something to restore.

Most 10 ratings have never restored ANYTHING themselves!!!So just dont know!!! They should be greatful for people that take true pride in restoring something!!

    I dont understand what adding the sodium bicarbonate does? It would just neutralize the phosphoric acid in the Coke. If you didnt add the baking soda I think those parts would clean up in a fraction of the time. Letting the acid in the Coke do its job

    Fraud: The wood (possibly plastic) veneer is covered in red rust. Neither wood nor plastic rust. All he did was remove debris that he put there himself. He literally wiped off a lighter that was supposedly sitting in PH neutral, flat soda for 12 hours. Note how after soaking in sugar there was no stickiness involved. I love watching craftsman return something destroyed to usefulness. He's doing a fraction of the work for all the accolades.

      @samuelfellows6923 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      🤨 - I think this restorer is genuine, as he has a euro extension lead that he plugged his micro-drill into, and when he showed his hands; they were a pale pink he was like myself, a European/Russian westerner = we care about what we are restoring and the thing is found like that before it is restored. (Yes, the spring looks suspiciously unaffected, as does the cotton insert ~ but the lighter was possibly? so well sealed that the corrosion didn’t get to them). Could you [@therestorer] identify yourself as genuine, and how did you find the lighter?

I don't immediately believe that someone who's Indian, Middle Eastern, African, etc is dishonest due to the color of their skin or their place of birth/residence.

      Instead of just saying fake, can you give a time stamp where there is evidence? Not sure about you but I’m not seeing anything and the devil is in the details. Wearing gloves, covering the tips of the tools that come into contact with sensitive parts and the methodology he uses to restore is a pretty solid regimen. Why do all of that if it’s just fake to get views? It would be a waste of time. I could be wrong though. Evidence is important before dismissal of someone’s hard work. TH-cam channels are difficult to maintain without a lot of effort, consistent content or people. :)
