S.T. Dupont 250th Anniversary Haute Création Double Cutter — Gold Bronze (Liberty Bell)
The 250th Anniversary Haute Création Double Cutter in gold bronze is the companion piece to the gold bronze Line 2 lighter of the same collection. The two objects share a finish, a subject matter, and a purpose: together they form the complete set for the smoker who wants both instruments of the ritual — the cutter that opens the cigar and the lighter that starts it — unified in the same Haute Création artistic program. At the Haute Création level, each piece justifies itself independently; as a pair, they reinforce each other.
Gold Bronze / Liberty Bell
The cutter's body carries the Liberty Bell in sculpted high relief — the Pennsylvania icon whose crack is as famous as its casting, whose inscription "Proclaim Liberty Throughout All the Land" has served as a recurring reference point in American history from the abolition movement through the civil rights era. The gold bronze finish places the relief work in the register of antique struck metal: warm, historical, weighted. The reverse carries the scene of the Declaration's signers, the same motif that appears on the companion lighter's front face, creating a visual continuity between the two objects when placed together.
Haute Création / Double Blade Guillotine
The S.T. Dupont double blade guillotine cuts from both sides of the cap simultaneously, the dual blades meeting cleanly rather than pushing through the tobacco from one direction — a precision cut that respects the structure of the cigar it prepares. As a Haute Création piece, the functional mechanism is matched by the artisanal surface applied to its body: the two qualities together, in a USA-exclusive object made for the occasion of America's 250th anniversary. Available on order, Summer 2026.
Now available at The Tobacconist of Greenwich.
