https://c2.staticflickr.com/2/1837/43325192764_c36934ab83_o.jpg CARAN d’ACHE Founded in 1915, CARAN d’ACHE shares its name with the Russian word "карандаш" (karandash), meaning pencil. The word itself originates from the Turkish "kara taş," meaning black stone, a direct reference to graphite, the essential material for pencil leads. Caran d’Ache is Switzerland’s sole manufacturer of high-end writing instruments, pencils, and art supplies, embodying Swiss industrial expertise, meticulous craftsmanship, precision, reliability, and innovation. Each product is crafted in Caran d’Ache’s own workshops in Geneva, where traditional techniques and skilled artisans merge with advanced modern technology. Initially focusing on pencil leads and colored pencils, the brand later diversified its offerings to include crayons, mechanical pencils, and ballpoint pens. Notably, Caran d’Ache invented the world's first ballpoint pen. Over decades of development, the brand has established a significant international presence. Today, Caran d’Ache’s products are categorized into three main areas: Colour (colored pencils and pigments), WRITING INSTRUMENTS & ACCESSORIES (luxury writing instruments and accessories), and OFFICE (general pens, pencils, and stationery). https://c2.staticflickr.com/2/1774/42255389240_f21a50efe6_b.jpg https://c2.staticflickr.com/2/1837/42255389320_496c261d6b_b.jpg Rhodium plating, achieved through high-tech processes, lends the pen a beautiful, captivating silver sheen.
