Caran D’ache Spirit of Switzerland

Part of the grand tradition of Swiss manufacturing excellence, Caran d’Ache develops and makes in Geneva products that meet the criteria imposed by the Swiss-made label. For its 100th anniversary, the brand has imagined a tribute to its homeland. Created in collaboration with a Swiss craftsman-jeweller, this limited edition captures the traditions of the Alpine nation in fourteen figurative representations, each characteristic of Switzerland’s cultural identity and heritage. Sculpted in solid silver, these scenes stand out against the matt black body of the pens: meadows, mountain tops, edelweiss, Alpine horns and of course, the legendary Swiss chalets. These writing instruments even contain a superb mountain jewel, admired since ancient times for its ornamental value: a rutile quartz cabochon that is set in the tip of the cap. This limited series comprises 100 fountain pens and 100 roller pens, each numbered.
