RONSON Banjo Wild Brass Oil Lighter R01-M010
A true icon in lighter history, the RONSON Banjo is celebrated as the world's first automatic lighter with one-touch ignition. Originally introduced in 1927, its innovative mechanism revolutionized lighter design and established the Banjo as one of the most respected names among smoking enthusiasts and collectors worldwide.
The distinctive rounded shape, inspired by the musical instrument from which it takes its name, remains virtually unchanged from the original design. Crafted in Japan with the same attention to detail that made the Banjo famous, this model combines vintage mechanical charm with reliable everyday functionality.
The Wild Brass finish highlights the natural beauty of solid brass without protective coating or polishing. As the lighter is handled and exposed to air, the surface gradually develops a unique patina, creating an appearance that becomes increasingly personal over time. Each piece ages differently, making every Banjo truly one of a kind.

About the Wild Brass Finish
The Wild Brass finish is intentionally left uncoated and minimally polished to showcase the authentic character of brass. As a result, slight oxidation, color variations, and minor surface marks may already be present when the lighter is purchased.
Over time, exposure to air and regular handling naturally transforms the surface, producing a rich patina unique to each individual lighter. No two pieces age in exactly the same way, making every Banjo a distinctive expression of craftsmanship and personal use.
About the RONSON Banjo
Created by Louis V. Aronson's legendary RONSON brand, the Banjo became the world's first lighter to achieve one-touch ignition. Its ingenious mechanical design allowed users to ignite and extinguish the flame through a simple motion, setting a new standard for lighter innovation.
Nearly a century later, the Banjo remains one of the most recognizable mechanical oil lighters ever produced. Its timeless design, historical significance, and satisfying operation continue to attract collectors and enthusiasts around the world.
