Description

Aquarium table lighter by Alfred Dunhill.

This “half-giant” size lighter features reverse carved and painted Lucite panels with decoration of fish swimming underwater and features a gilded mechanism with the Dunhill retailers mark.

Each scene on these aquarium lighters is unique in the 1950’s Ben Shillingford worked for Dunhill and perfected the art of carving and painting lucite panels to resemble miniature aquariums.
