In 1924, Arnold Schweitzer
acquired the Ecridor Pencil
Factory in Geneva & created
the Caran d’Ache Swiss
Pencil Factory. In 1929, the
young company launched
the world's first all-metal
mechanical clutch pencil,
the Fixpencil. A year later
the first propelling hand
engraved Ecridor pencil models in gold & silver made
their debut. In 1953, the Ecridor ballpoint was launched.
In its eighty-three year history, Caran d’Ache has become
synonymous with creativity, refinement and excellent
quality. Caran d’Ache has in essence created its own
genre within the realm of fine writing instruments.
The Caran d’Ache company remains an independent
family enterprise with an international reputation.

Urushi
King of Pens
In 1911, Mr. Kyugoro Sakata, an
engineer from Hiroshima, Japan,
was introduced to the fountain pen.
His long-time friend, a BritishSailor, demonstrated it to him.
Mr. Sakata was so intrigued by the
design and function of the pen he
decided to begin a company to craft
the finest writing instruments in the
world. In honor of his British
friend, he chose to name the
company Sailor Pen.
He was determined to produce
the most elegant and sophisticated
writing instruments in the world.
His passion was to make writing
an alluring adventure to expand
Sailor’s market to the world,
as a sailor explores the world.

dialog 1 is a ball pen with a unique triangular
body created by German designer Richard Sapper.
dialog 2 is a capless rollerball using a twist-action
mechanism, designed by Dane Knud Holscher.
dialog 3 is a fountain pen created by Swiss
designer Franco Clivio. Dialog 3 represents the
third pen in a series developed over the last ten
years as a “dialogue” between Lamy and the
shared Bauhaus visions of these designers.
To write with the dialog 3 fountain pen, just twist
and the nib will slide elegantly out of the barrel
while the clip retracts into the body. Twist it closed
and the nib retracts, then a protective ball valve
automatically slides into place, protecting the nib.

In 1978, Yair Greenberg
established Monteverde.
He brought a fresh and
innovative approach to pen
manufacturing by using a
much more colourful palette
than had previously been offered.
Monteverde pens combine the
finest European resins, celluloids and carbon fibres
with state-of-the-art ink technologies. Monteverde
found thousands of ways to improve the fun,
fashion, and function of writing. The brand also
offers wonderful after sales service.
A closely-watched and often imitated, industry
leader, early in 2006 Yair Greenberg realized that
the business of pen design and manufacturing
needed a fresh breath, a new burst of innovation
new ways to carry pens, new systems to transfer
ideas to paper. Every pen that Monteverde
introduced feature innovations to make the act of
writing easier, more inspiring, and just plain fun.

The creator of the modern day
fountain pen was Lewis Edson
Waterman, who founded his
company in New York in 1883.
His system was soon adopted
by all manufacturers of fountain
pens. In 1884, Waterman began
to advertise regularly in magazines.
The success of these advertising campaigns soon led
all of Waterman's friends to finance the opening of
the first true pen factory. An agreement was signed
with a company in New York which made gold nibs
and the “Ideal Pen Company” was created. In 1926,
Waterman’s French agent, invented the GIF ink cartridge.
Waterman today, is still committed to pursuing its
role as the creator of classically dreamy fountain pens.

In 1888, George Parker founded
the Parker Pen Company. With a
single minded vision of creating
a better pen. This philosophy
has powered the direction of the
Parker Pen Company ever since.
In 1921, the renowned creator
of Sherlock Holmes, Sir Arthur
Conan Doyle, began exclusively
using the newly launched Duofold.
In 1939, the first Parker 51 was
produced. In 1954, the best
selling Jotter was Parker's first
ever ballpoint. In 1964, the opulent
Parker 75 brought a new level
of craftsmanship. In 1993, the
popular Sonnet Collection was
created. 1987 marked the time
when Parker returned to its
famous icon, the Duofold and
created the Duofold Centennial
Edition. Now in 2010, Parker
presents the refresh of the Premier
Collection which is featured here.
