Varius™ Edelweiss, a tribute to the Alpine flower
Caran d’Ache invites you on a journey to the heart of the Swiss Alps with the creation of a beechwood instrument in the effigy of the emblematic mountain flower: the edelweiss.
Varius™ Edelweiss is a timeless creation intended for fans of Alpine art. The Swiss national flower, the emblem of Alpine guides and a protected plant since 1879, the little edelweiss embodies an entire part of Swiss cultural imagination, associated with numerous customs and legends, making this Caran d’Ache Limited Edition an icon of the Varius range.
The Varius™ Edelweiss Limited Edition is available in three writing modes: ballpoint pen, roller pen and fountain pen. It is limited to 1,784 pieces – a tip of the hat to the date on which the name “edelweiss” came into being – and is engraved with the number “1 in 1784”.
The Varius™ writing instruments have asserted themselves in the Caran d’Ache Haute Écriture collections, combining accomplished forms with unparalleled writing comfort. They showcase exceptional materials transformed by the most sophisticated techniques.
