OLD JADEITE RACE HORSE & JOCKEY CIGAR CIGARETTE LIGHTER

Here's a fabulous, antique "Rare Jadeite Racehorse and Jockey Electric Cigar Lighter".  I've never seen another like this!  What a rare addition to your lighter, jadeite or horse collection.

This fabulous lighter stands about 3.5" tall X 2.5" in diameter.  It sits on 6 legs or toes and has fabulous mold lines with about 21 panels and a lipped top.   On top of the glass is a thoroughbred race horse, ridden by his jockey (constructed of some type of cast metal).  I can just picture this great piece in a smokey gentleman's gaming club, back in the days of prohibition, etc.  Truly a piece for a 'man's man'!

It appears to be in great condition for its age, without chips or cracks.  There is a shallow slice to the glass, on the top near the horses front feet.  This appears to be a production flaw and not a crack.  It is still in working condition, but the cord is frayed near the plug and a few other places, so I wouldn't leave it on to long.  The heating element heats up quickly and smells a bit.  What a piece!!
