Caran d'Ache Ecridor Avenue Ballpoint Pen – Swiss Made Ballpoint Pen

The Caran d'Ache Ecridor Avenue Ballpoint Pen is crafted by Caran d'Ache, the Swiss Maison de Haute Écriture founded in Geneva in 1915. Every Haute Écriture instrument is produced in the company's Geneva workshops under the “Swiss Made” label and assembled by hand.

The Ecridor Collection

Since the 1930s, the Ecridor collection has been emblematic of the precious know-how of Caran d'Ache: a sober, elegant hexagonal design finely engraved by the Maison's master guillocheurs over a brass body.

Adorned with harmoniously-aligned engraved cubes, Ecridor Avenue celebrates the paving in Geneva's streets — a hundred polished quadrilaterals reminiscent of the links of a watch strap, lending it a resolutely urban and contemporary style.

Since 1953, the Ecridor™ ballpoint pen has represented the fusion of an authentic, contemporary style with reliability demonstrated by its mechanism emblematic of the Swiss-made precision. Inspired by the avenues of Geneva, this 'cobblestone' guillochage reflects elegance and modernity. The Caran d'Ache craftsmen have drawn inspiration from this pattern which represents both the cobblestones of Geneva and the links of a watch strap. The matte finish lends this Ecridor™ a highly contemporary appearance, echoing the aesthetics of watches to create a lasting legacy.
