Founder's Day 2025

Zippo is proud to honor its founder George G. Blaisdell with this beautiful collectible for Founder’s Day 2025. The breathtaking 540° Fusion design celebrates the creativity, artistic talent, and innovation that inspired that first storm lighter and continue to inspire Zippo today.

A flowing plant motif reminiscent of Art Nouveau surrounds all surfaces in a design focused on the Founders Day crest, featuring George Blaisdell’s birth date and Zippo’s founding year. A burning storm lighter forms the base of the design, which is mirrored on the other side and adds an extra dimension with the shiny Tumbled Brass tones of the lighter case.

Only 5,000 copies of this beautiful design will be made: they are valuable collectibles that are consecutively numbered and feature a gold-plated insert.
