Old 🔥 LIGHTER 🔥 Repair - Trench Art style -

This time I do a repair of a very special and old lighter, this restoration is a tribute to all who lost their lives in the first world war... I got this trench Art Lighter from a friend who is a metal detectorist, he found it buried very deep in the sand in a local beach. Many years of salt water rain sun and the various minerals from the ground left that unique "patina".
I choose to clean using electrolisys then a soft grind and lots of polish. Also based on some figures i managed to find on the net i made a missing piece out a rod of brass.
