Léman™ Caviar
For over 20 years, Caran d’Ache has paid vivid tribute to the most attractive colours of Lake Geneva. From the intensity of its blue waters to the depth of its magical nights, the Léman™ Collection offers a stunning reflection of the lake’s unique aura.
To further enhance the style of the Léman™ collection, Caran d’Ache master craftsmen have created an unusual association of materials. The new Léman™ Caviar creation is a subtle fusion of lacquer and guillochage techniques, revealing a fine undulating engraving that creates unexpected shimmering metallic reflections. Glossy, amber tinted bronze lacquer envelopes the silhouette of the pen, instilling a definite sense of caviar beads.
This beautiful writing instrument is made of a brass body and a cap, covered with an amber colored lacquer and a “meander” guilloché motif. The Caran d’Ache logo and Swiss Made branding are engraved on the ring while the rhodium and silver-coated cap button carries the Caran d’Ache identification (lacquered hexagon in matching color). Equipped with a rhodium-plated 18k gold nib.
Designed and produced from start to finish in the company’s workshops in Geneva, the Léman instruments offer writing aficionados a comfort never felt before. Elegant contrasts are seen in the silver-plated and rhodium-coated attributes, topped with a lacquered button in a matching colour. An ode to lakeside settings, they will delight aesthetes looking for a timeless gift to offer or as a personal indulgence.
Writing instruments transformed into essential companions through the combination of two precious ancestral skills that are emblematic of the company: the art of lacquering and the art of guillochage. Used in conjunction with a colour chart developed over a number of years by the craftsmen of Caran d’Ache, this mastery is clear for all to see.
