Caran d’Ache unveils 849™ Pastels, a delicate and luminous interpretation of its emblematic 849™ ballpoint pen. A true icon of the Maison since its creation in 1969, it has established itself over the decades as a staple of Swiss design, instantly recognizable thanks to its hexagonal silhouette.

Inspired by the subtlety of powdery tones and the poetry of springtime hues, this new Special Edition places color center stage in a soft and contemporary palette. It is available in four shades – yellow, pink, blue and green – bringing a touch of freshness and serenity to everyday life.

Each colour conveys an emotion: yellow captures the gentle glow of the first hours of the day, pink whispers poetry and softness, blue invites clarity and calm, while green celebrates natural freshness and harmony. An invitation to infuse every writing gesture with optimism and lightness.

Made in Switzerland in the Maison’s Geneva workshops, the 849™ Pastels combines expertise, precision and durability. Its lightweight yet robust aluminium body ensures a comfortable grip, while its Goliath ink cartridge guarantees smooth writing for up to 600 A4 pages.

The 849™ Pastels collection celebrates colour as a source of emotion and creativity, transforming one of Caran d’Ache’s everyday iconic objects into a true style accessory.
