ST Dupont has long been synonymous with refinement, whether we’re talking about the famous lighters, leather goods or even writing instruments. If the lighters need no introduction, it’s not the same with writing instruments as some users still find them a bit underrated. To be honest, I think the brand produces some beautiful pieces that deserve more attention. In today’s article, I’ll introduce you to the ST Dupont Line D Eternity, a pen that has captivated me with its wonderful guilloche.
This new addition to the Line D series showcases a stunning reinterpretation of the iconic diamond point guilloche, presenting the diagonal diamond point guilloche – a fresh aesthetic code that is already emblematic of the Maison’s craftsmanship.
Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the model is a testament to ST Dupont’s commitment to excellence. Each pen is carefully coated with precious and lustrous lacquer, creating a finish that exudes sophistication and refinement. The rich hues of the lacquer further enhance the allure of the pen, making it a coveted treasure for collectors and connoisseurs alike.
Design is not the only forte of this edition; there is a 14-carat solid gold nib adorning the pen, a hallmark of superior quality and performance. I had the opportunity to test some ST Dupont nibs recently and was surprised at how well they performed on paper.
True to its heritage, the Line D Eternity is proudly made in ST Dupont’s workshops in Faverges, France, where skilled artisans imbue each pen with a sense of artistry and precision. From the initial concept to the final assembly, every stage of the production process is carefully handled in-house, resulting in a writing instrument that is unrivaled in its craftsmanship.
For collectors who appreciate both the beauty of lacquer and the intricacy of guilloche, the Line D Eternity is a must-have addition to their collection. Its timeless design and impeccable craftsmanship make it a prized possession that will be cherished for generations to come.
In addition to the fountain pen variant, the Line D Eternity is also available as a rollerball pen, offering a convenient alternative for those who prefer a maintenance-free writing experience. Whether you choose the fountain pen or the rollerball pen, rest assured that you are investing in a masterpiece of luxury and sophistication.
With a price of €1.400,00, it is as well suited for everyday use as it can be displayed in a collector’s cabinet.
I’m pleasantly surprised by this creation from ST Dupont, and I’m sure that any fan who appreciates the guilloche technique will find a reliable companion in this edition.
The Line D Eternity collection also comprises ballpoint pens; besides, Line D Eternity is not an addition to the Line D series, but replaces it, as per the information I received from ST Dupont Paris when they launched the new series shortly before Christmas 2023…
