What happened in 1960s

1961 was a pivotal year, not just for Cricket lighters, but for the world. The birth of Cricket in Annecy, France, marked the introduction of the first disposable lighter and coincided with a time of global cultural upheaval.

• ‍The 60s live collection showcases a variety of styles that capture the era's bold and innovative spirit. From geometric prints and psychedelic patterns to vibrant colors and flowing silhouettes, the pieces reflect the daring fashion trends of the time. Additionally, the collection draws inspiration from the music of the 60s, evoking the energetic and exciting sounds of rock and roll, soul, and folk.

• Back to the 60s pays homage to the creativity, innovation, and social change that characterized the 1960s. By incorporating various elements into distinct sections, and employing a vintage drawing style, the collection celebrates this iconic era. This decade witnessed the emergence of counterculture movements, the thrilling space race, and the birth of rock and jazz music.

The lighter as a gift

We've all experienced that moment: a lighter mysteriously vanishes, "borrowed" by a friend or who-knows-who. Here's a twist: what if a stolen lighter became a way to connect with the person who took it? Imagine your lighter as a little token for someone special.‍

• ‍Lucky Lite a collection of good fortune, packaged in a stylish lighter. Each lighter is a symbol of prosperity and happiness, making it a thoughtful gift that expresses your desire for their success and contentment.

Fact or Fake

We're infusing lighters with a playful challenge that sparks curiosity and critical thinking. Each lighter features a two-sided design, one side showcasing a fascinating illustration, the other with a twist. But here's the catch – is it fact or fiction?‍

• ‍Fact or Fake presents a unique two-sided design. It invites users to engage in a thought-provoking game, challenging them to determine whether the depicted structures or technologies could have originated from other civilizations or even extraterrestrial sources.

Future in space

Leave the little green men behind. This theme invites us on a cosmic adventure, where we'll ponder the possibilities of human life flourishing in a distant galaxy.‍

• ‍Gastop collection imagines a future where the moon or other planets act as a refueling hub for vehicles traveling between Earth and beyond, drawing inspiration from the possibilities of space exploration.

As we venture into the cosmos, let us carry with us a sense of appreciation for our achievements and the tranquility that comes from a moment of peace.
