Zippo Fusion Leaf Design Windproof Lighter, High Polish Chrome (29727)

The Zippo Fusion Leaf windproof lighter (model 29727) is a high polish chrome case dressed in a geometric leaf that Zippo builds with its Fusion process: set color palettes printed with intentional breaks in the chrome so the metal shows through the design. The result reads like stained glass, an iridescent leaf that throws color as you turn it in the light. Underneath the artwork it is a standard genuine Zippo windproof insert, all-metal, refillable, and covered by the brand’s lifetime guarantee.

The Fusion Leaf, Up Close

The Fusion process is what sets this lighter apart from a plain chrome Zippo. Zippo prints the geometric leaf in a fixed color palette and leaves deliberate chrome breaks in the artwork, so the polished metal beneath shows through the gaps. That interplay of color and bare chrome is what creates the iridescent, stained-glass effect, the leaf appears to catch and scatter light from different angles. The base is a high polish chrome finish over a solid brass case, so the surface stays bright and mirror-like around the design.

Windproof by Design

This is a genuine Zippo windproof lighter, not a novelty. The all-metal case opens and closes with the unmistakable Zippo click, and the windproof chimney shields the flame so it stays lit outdoors where a disposable would blow out. It is a flame lighter for cigarettes, cigars, pipes, candles, and campfire kindling. It is not a vape, and it is not a concealment device.

Built to Refill, Backed for Life

A Zippo is made to be refueled and serviced rather than thrown away. The insert lifts out of the case so you can re-saturate the packing, swap the flint, and replace the wick as they wear, the same insert can last for decades. When parts wear out, keep replacement flints and a replacement wick on hand so the lighter keeps sparking. On top of that, Zippo’s lifetime guarantee covers mechanical function: it works or Zippo fixes it free. If the lighter ever stops working, you send it to Zippo and they repair it at no charge, that promise is honored by Zippo, the maker. We sell and stock the lighter; the guarantee is Zippo’s. Note that the guarantee covers the mechanism, not the printed finish or normal cosmetic wear.

Collecting and Care

Every genuine Zippo carries a date code stamped on the bottom of the case (a letter for the month, A through L, plus the last digits of the year), which doubles as proof of authenticity and tells you when it was made. Fusion designs are popular with collectors precisely because the stained-glass effect is hard to reproduce. To keep the chrome bright, wipe excess fuel off the case before lighting and store it away from grit that can scratch the polish. If you want to personalize it, Zippo also offers engraving services for the chrome areas around the design.

The Fusion Leaf 29727 is a practical everyday windproof lighter that happens to look like a small piece of stained glass, the kind of Zippo people keep for years and refill rather than replace.
