Dupont Classique Chinese Lacquer Ballpoint Pen
The S.T. Dupont Classique pen is appreciated not only for its impeccable looks, but also for its perfect balance and fluid writing. Emblematic of the brand, its utterly distinctive fine and slender shape still appeals today! In 1973 Jackie Kennedy asked Dupont to make a pen to match her Dupont lighter and the "Classique" pen was created, now an iconic Dupont classic. With its slim form, the first luxury ballpoint became symbolic of modern design. Dupont was inspired to recreate its Classique design in natural lacquer. S.T. Dupont uses authentic Chinese lacquer that is hand-gathered and blended like wine. Hand-applied in numerous layers, it has a sheen and depth that no synthetic finish can equal, a silky pearl-like feel, and is exceptionally resistant to scuffs, scratches and heat. Available in blue with palladium or deep red with gold-plated palladium accents.
