I've inherited this table lighter. (Rowenta). I think it's from the 
early/mid 60's.

Unfortunately I don't know what kind of battery it uses. I have a memory of 
that it was rather unusual both in shape and in voltage.

If anybody could point me in the right direction I would be very happy

As the company Rowenta still exists, why don't you just send them an e-mail
and ask?

I'm sure someone there could tell you.

Have been tried, but no one there knew anything about that products since it 
was old !!
But I eventually managed to figure out and bought this one, which is running 
perfect.
