The “849™ Original” ballpoint pen is a modern reinterpretation of the original 849 design, incorporating elements of the prevalent “industrial design” trend in its shape, material, and overall appearance. This pen undergoes a unique ageing process where stones are used to abrade the pen’s body, imparting a distinct, rough texture that aligns with the current retro fashion trend. Ergonomically designed, the pen’s hexagonal shape, a signature characteristic of the 849™ collection and Caran d’Ache brand, ensures a comfortable grip, making it suitable for extended writing sessions. The pen’s metal body not only exemplifies Caran d’Ache’s expertise in metalwork but also reflects a sturdy and durable design. To safeguard against wear and tear, the pen is finished with a protective varnish, ensuring its longevity and resistance to scratches and other damages.
