In the same vibrant collection inspired by the
colourful nights of Rio de Janeiro is a lightweight
lighter bearing a large trigger and the playful moon
crescent green and yellow logo of the Escurio line.
Developed by leading engineers and manufac-
turers of luxury smoking products and designed
to fit the hand perfectly, Lotus lighters show excel-
lent craftsmanship work, are reliable, beautiful and
fairly affordable. They are also available in The
Wall of Cigar in Macau.
Providing numerous surfaces, cigar accessories
are also an ideal branding platform. As says Tony
Hyman, who has collected one of the most com-
prehensive collection of cigar memorabilia, "cigar
boxes were designed by the pioneers in point-
of-sale package design and used by the pioneers
in modern marketing. Their use of cutting-edge
technology materials combined with an uncanny
response to customers' wants paved the way for
modern advertising."
