Cartier Fountain Pens
For over 150 years the name Cartier has been synonymous with luxury and quality while creating lines of both elegant and often extravagant watches, jewelry, and pens. Cartier fountain pens are the ultimate in writing instruments and carry the name of Louis Cartier, the French businessman who made his name and his precious creations known all around the world.
Whether you’re looking for a Cartier fountain pen for yourself or as a gift for someone special, there are several different pieces and collections to consider. With platinum details and a simple, understated shape, the Cartier Diablo Collection offers a timeless choice that’s sure to please anyone who appreciates a classic style.
For even more intricate details, the elegant Trinity de Cartier Collection features three bands of yellow and pink gold along with another in platinum as well as the signature double C engraved on the pen’s cap. These Cartier fountain pens are available in all platinum, Bordeaux, and black with gold or platinum detailing and come with 18 karat gold nibs sized medium, although they can be ordered with other nib sizes.
The three rings of the Trinity Cartier fountain pen collection are in place to signify the virtues of love, fidelity, and friendship, giving this piece extra special meaning.
New lines of Cartier fountain pens include the Pasha de Cartier Collection, which manages to be both contemporary as well as timeless with its selection of black-composite, platinum finishes, brushed detailing, and 18 karat gold rhodium plated nibs.
The décor used on these pens is comprised of multiple pyramids known as the “clou de Paris” and first appeared on Cartier lighters and watches in the 1940s.
Cartier is renowned for their limited edition works and one of the latest creations is a celebration of the land of China known as the Dragon Décor Limited Edition Fountain Pen, with only 888 of them being made as a tribute to the belief that the number eight is lucky and symbolizes eternity. A sculpted dragon made of sterling silver with a palladium finish adorns the pen’s cap and features striking eyes made from two genuine emeralds.
The Dragon Décor pen also features five pearls set into the body complemented by a mother of pearl cabochon and 18 karat gold nib with rhodium accents.
Artisans at Cartier have crafted the Louis Cartier Logo Fountain Pen in a rich chocolate color coupled with high quality leather with two seams. The familiar double C appears on the cap and other fine details include the logo “C de Cartier” on the pen’s clip, a tiger eye cabochon, and a rhodium finished, 18 karat gold nib.
This particular Cartier fountain pen uses either cartridges or a converter and only 1,847 pieces were produced. You’ll find the edition number of each pen engraved on the cap ring.
Another limited edition line comprised of 1,847 pieces is the Cartier Constellation fountain pen, inspired by the starry heavens and finished in a deep blue lacquer with platinum colored lines encircling the pen to symbolize the constant rotation of the stars and planets.
