S.T. Dupont Line D Large Fountain Pen – La Mer
S.T. Dupont are renowned worldwide for producing writing instruments of exceptional quality and the new ‘Gradient collection’, is no exception, showcasing S.T. Dupont’s expert ability to apply natural lacquer to writing instruments of the highest quality.
Available in two distinct finishes, ‘La Flamme’ and ‘La Mer’, each pen offers a remarkable display of color. Luxurious hues are blended to give a subtle ‘gradient’ effect. Offered in S.T. Dupont’s iconic large Line D, each pen echoes the ethereal forces of nature: Fire and Water.
Each writing instrument is crafted entirely at the S.T. Dupont factory in Faverges, France and is made utilizing ancient Japanese and Chinese lacquer techniques. Each pen passes through a two-stage production process. First, up to 9 Layers of sumptuous natural lacquer are hand painted to the brass barrel of each pen, the result is a pearl like shimmer and a luxurious finish that is resistant to shocks, scratches and even fire. Once this base lacquer is polished and prepared, the second stage involves spraying an additional pearlescent lacquer in small spurts to give the pens unique ‘gradient’ effect.
La Mer’s beautiful cerulean and azure gradient design stands as a tribute to the shifting, endless ebbs and flows of the tides of the sea. The gradient flows from a vibrant light blue at the cap, to a velvety dark blue, and lightens up to a serene light blue at the base of the pen.
This iconic oversized S.T. Dupont pen features the bold Dupont blazon on the articulated clip, an enhanced Dupont ‘D’ in the crown of the cap and a perfectly balanced shape for exceptional writing. The pen cap closes with Dupont’s iconic ‘cling’ and features a fluted grip section for a superb writing experience. The cap comfortably posts on the back of the pen with a delicate ‘snap’. Each pen is presented in an S.T. Dupont gift box
