S T Dupont Pen Info


RRW89

Recommended Posts

Hi,


I'm not a big fountain pen enthusiast however I have recently found myself in possession of an S T Dupont pair of fountain pens complete with all the trimmings. I was informed that they are a his and hers set and the date in one of the manuals is December 1990. Does anyone know much about this pen set and it's history? Also, if anyone knows what the value of these could be that would be good to know.


Attached are some photos of the set.


Cheers!

Those are Classique model pens and likely use the Parker/Aurora standard cartridges and converters. They could be Sterling silver or silver plate (likely the latter) so look to see if stamped 925. Originally there was a lighter where the cartridges are now and from the shape it was probably a Ligne2 lighter.

Thanks jar, looking closer it appears to have the markings 750 with 18ct nib. It's good to know there was originally a lighter in the set but I have no idea where that will have gotten to. Would this still be a classique model?

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
