Léman™ Grand Bleu
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.
Bathed in light and ruffled by the wind, waves come to life with the new Léman™ Grand Bleu. The delicately engraved background evokes the regular ripples of waves on the water’s surface. A layer of translucent lacquer, reminiscent of the intense blue of the ocean depths, reveals these undulating reflections on the refined body of Léman™ Grand Bleu writing instruments. Lulled by the waves and the zephyr’s song, lovers of fine writing will dive headlong into a thrilling odyssey with the new Léman™ Grand Bleu.
This beautiful writing instrument is made of a brass body and a cap, covered with a transparent navy lacquer, representing “waves”, in a 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 (navy lacquered hexagon). 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.
