The body is finished in platinum and black Chinese lacquer, with a design that follows a rectangle-pattern. It has a total length of 139, 5 mm and a total weight when empty of 28,5 g.

The thin clip is one of the main symbols of the Classique collection, with a total length really unique and out of the ordinary, so it suits and grasps in any clothe.

In the union with the body, at the end of the clip, the name of the brand is engraved together with the words “LAQUE de CHINE”.

Once the cap is released, by pressing on it, the grasp section presents some vertical ribs that help holding tightly the fountain pen. Despite being a quite thin fountain pen, thanks to its design it is a really easy to use writing instrument.

The anagram of S. T. Dupont, a streamlined capital D, is engraved on the 18 K solid gold nib.

This fountain pen can be used either with an ink cartridge or a converter.

 

 

The Classique Laque de Chine is a a fountain pen with all the singular characteristics of S.T. Dupont. The use of black Chinese lacquer together with palladium creates a very elegant fountain pen, which despite its small nib is very well balanced, creating an exceptional writing experience.

 

Last but not least, one of the main characteristics of all S.T. Dupont fountain pens is their snap, always by pressing, with a typical clic sound, which transmits a sensation of aplomb and solidity very appreciated by its users.
