Product description
Looking for the Zippo Couples Emblem windproof lighter in El Paso? Model 48688 wears a brushed chrome case with a playful skeleton sweetheart couple and bright red hearts. Check store stock at El Paso Smoke Shops, reserve online, and pick yours up the same day.
A romantic skeleton-couple design
The hook here is the artwork. A skeletal pair of sweethearts shares a loving gaze across the brushed chrome case, and bright red hearts frame the emblem to add the romance. It is a whimsical, affectionate take on a couple, more sweet than spooky, and it reads as a keepsake rather than a loud graphic. The brushed chrome catches light with a soft satin sheen, so the red hearts pop against the metal. Packaged in a Zippo gift box, the 48688 makes an easy present for a partner, an anniversary, or a collector who likes themed designs.
Genuine Zippo build, made in the USA
Under the design sits a real Zippo. The all-brass Classic case flips open with the signature click, and the flame burns inside a patented windproof chimney that stays lit when a normal lighter blows out. It is refillable for life with Zippo premium lighter fluid, and the flint and wick swap out in seconds, so one lighter can last for years. Every Couples Emblem is made in Bradford, Pennsylvania, where Zippo has built windproof lighters since 1932, and it is backed by the lifetime guarantee. It ships empty, so add fuel before the first light.

Questions & Answers
What is the skeleton couple emblem on the 48688?
It shows a skeletal pair of sweethearts sharing a loving gaze on a brushed chrome case, with bright red hearts adding the romance. Model 48688 is a playful, affectionate skeleton-couple emblem, made as a lighthearted romantic gift rather than a loud graphic.
Does the Couples Emblem 48688 come filled with lighter fluid?
No. Like every Zippo, the 48688 ships with an empty tank because fuel cannot travel inside the lighter. Fill it with Zippo premium lighter fluid before the first light. The fluid is sold separately, and the wick and windscreen are built around it.
Does the Couples Emblem Zippo stay lit in the wind?
Yes, it is genuinely wind-resistant. The flame burns inside a perforated chimney that shelters it while still feeding it air, so a well-fueled Zippo stays lit in stiff wind that snuffs a normal disposable lighter. In a strong gale any open flame can still be pushed around.
How do I refill the 48688 without marking its brushed chrome case?
Only the insert needs care; the brushed-chrome case with its skeleton-couple emblem stays out of it. Slip the insert from the case, lift the felt pad, and let Zippo premium lighter fluid soak the packing to a damp, not dripping, feel. When the spark thins out, install a new flint at the spring-loaded bottom screw, and fit a fresh wick after the flame shortens.
Is the Couples Emblem 48688 backed by Zippo's lifetime guarantee?
It covers the mechanism, summed up as it works or Zippo fixes it free. If the working parts fail, Zippo repairs them at no charge at its Bradford, Pennsylvania clinic. We sell the lighter and Zippo performs the repair. The guarantee does not cover the printed design, the chrome finish, or scratches.
What is the 48688's case made of and where is it made?
The 48688 uses Zippo's all-brass case with a brushed chrome finish, and it is made in Bradford, Pennsylvania, where Zippo has built windproof lighters since 1932. It is an all-metal lighter with the signature Zippo click and a solid hand-feel.
Is the Couples Emblem Zippo legal to buy in Texas?
Yes. A Zippo is a refillable flame lighter, which is legal to buy in Texas and across El Paso. It is not a vape and not a concealment device. We do check a valid photo ID at the counter, since we sell lighters only to guests 21 or older.
How does the Couples Emblem 48688 compare to a plain brushed Zippo as a romantic gift?
It is one of the more giftable Zippos we stock. Where a plain matte or brushed lighter reads as everyday, the skeleton sweetheart couple and red hearts give the 48688 a romantic hook, and it arrives in a gift box. It suits a partner, an anniversary, or a collector of themed designs.
How much does the Couples Emblem 48688 cost?
The Zippo Couples Emblem (48688) is $41.95 at El Paso Smoke Shops. Check your nearest store for live stock, reserve it online, and pick it up the same day with a valid 21+ photo ID at the counter.
Sales restricted to guests 21 or older; valid government-issued photo ID is required at pickup. This is a windproof flame lighter, not a vape and not a concealment device. It ships empty with no fuel in the tank, so premium lighter fluid is sold separately and must be added before the first use. Use responsibly and keep away from children.
