S.T. Dupont x Romeo y Julieta: the art of the cigar elevated to jewel status
To celebrate 150 years of the iconic Romeo y Julieta brand, S.T. Dupont unveils an exceptional collection combining craftsmanship, passion and heritage.
When two historic houses combine their expertise, the result goes beyond mere collaboration. With this exclusive S.T. Dupont x Romeo y Julieta collection, the world of cigars meets the world of goldsmithing and haute creation. Founded in Havana in 1875, Romeo y Julieta is today one of the world’s most recognized cigar brands, famous for its iconic red and gold ring, and appreciated by figures such as Winston Churchill.
S.T. Dupont, a Parisian company founded in 1872, shares the same passion for excellence in craftsmanship. For over 150 years, it has sublimated everyday objects – lighters, pens, luggage – into exceptional pieces. This special edition is a true declaration of love for the art of living.
Lighters between tradition and modernity
At the heart of this collection are several revisited lighter models: Grand Dupont, Ligne 1, Biggy and Twiggy. The Grand Dupont is distinguished by its gold finish and deep red lacquer, worked to the house’s signature “popoté” effect. This finish evokes the leather patinas once applied to Dupont travel trunks. The sleeker Ligne 1, meanwhile, features a white lacquer finish, also punctuated with gold details.
Each piece bears a bas-relief medallion depicting a courtly scene between Romeo and Juliet, a direct nod to the graphic universe of the brand’s cigars.
Accessories and Haute Création: excellence down to the fingertips
The collection doesn’t stop at lighters. Cigar cutters, cigar cases and ashtrays complete this collection designed for the discerning enthusiast. Those looking for even rarer pieces will turn to the creations of Atelier Haute Création S.T. Dupont.
This made-to-measure line offers a Grand Dupont and a Ligne 2 decorated with rich engravings in patinated yellow brass: scenes inspired by Shakespeare’s tragedy, depictions of a castle, floral details… All in a sophisticated, theatrical spirit, embodying the power of storytelling and the elegance of form.
Collaboration available in Paris
In Paris, these pieces can be found in S.T. Dupont boutiques, notably the one on Rue Duphot, as well as in selected luxury retailers specializing in the art of cigar making.
