Limited Edition Alert: Dupont's Artistic Tribute to Monet's Impressionism

September 22, 2025

S.T. Dupont’s limited edition collaboration series pays tribute to Claude Monet’s Impression, Soleil Levant, an iconic painting first exhibited at the Paris 'Exhibition of the Impressionists'.

Created in just a few hours, the painting showcases remarkable artistic freedom. Since the viewer couldn’t easily recognize Le Havre port in the work, Monet chose to name it Impression.

This title gave birth to the term 'Impressionism', which came to define Monet and his contemporaries. Today, Impression, Sunrise stands as the symbol of Impressionism and is housed in Paris' Marmottan Monet Museum.

Painted on November 13, 1872, Impression, Soleil Levant is considered the founding work of the Impressionist movement. That same year, 25-year-old Simon Tissot-Dupont founded the S.T. Dupont Maison in France.Like Monet, the visionary craftsman was deeply inspired by an era of creativity and innovation. In homage to both the artist and his groundbreaking masterpiece, S.T. Dupont released an exclusive limited edition series.

S.T. Dupont has launched an exclusive limited-edition collaboration series, showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship of its lacquer masters. The collection features a meticulously crafted Ligne 2 “ping” sound lighter with a natural blue lacquer finish accented by golden elements. The ethereal blend of deep blue and sunrise orange infuses the series with a radiant and captivating aesthetic.

Strictly limited to 1,872 sets, this unique collection reflects S.T. Dupont’s legacy of refined craftsmanship and design precision. A must-have for collectors and art lovers, it is a timeless celebration of artistic brilliance.
