S. T. Duponto |

In 1972, S. T. Dupont launched its first luxury ballpoint pen; a functional, technical but also very personal object. Each S. T. Dupont writing instrument is characterised by pure lines, rich materials and a perfect, reassuring feel in the hand. S. T. Dupont uses natural Chinese lacquer hand gathered in Tonkin and then blended together like wine. It has a sheen and depth that no synthetic varnish can equal, it has a silky pearl-like feel , and is exceptionally hard-wearing and highly resistant to knocks, scuffs and scratches, as well as to heat. All S. T. Dupont Chinese lacquer writing instruments are stamped with a logo representing a stylised lacquer tree leaf, to authenticate and highlight the exceptional character of this unique material. As an alternative, contemporary lacquers offer a selection of fresh and intense colours. S. T. Dupont is also renowned for its metalwork, offering guilloche work, chasing, engraving, hand polishing and plating with precious metals. This succession of manufacturing processes sublimate the brass base with multiple intricate patterns and give it a final luxurious glow. |
