ALPINE FROST: WRITING INSPIRED BY WINTER
The Alpine Frost Collection draws inspiration from the pure frozen lakes and the majesty of snow-capped peaks. The emblematic pearly white and polar blue hues of this Special Edition convey the icy dazzle of winter and the magic of the festive season. Each detail conjures up the beauty of frosty landscapes and invites you on a journey to reconnect with the poetry of snowy peaks.
In this unique Christmas collection, you’ll appreciate all the expertise of the Maison Caran d’Ache. For over a century, the brand has been perpetuating a tradition of excellence, combining innovation, elegance and Swiss artisanal precision. Alpine Frost marks the start of a new chapter in the brand’s history, where the art of writing meets the frosted colours of Swiss peaks in the winter.
WRITING INSTRUMENTS IN FROSTED COLOURS
With Alpine Frost, the 849™ ballpoint pens have been reimagined in two polar variations. The first comes in iridescent glacier blue with tone-on-tone details. The second in pearly white, embellished with delicate geometric motifs and nickel-plated steel details. After that, it’s time to decide whether you’d prefer fine or medium writing, thanks to our Goliath ink refills.
The 849™ mechanical pencil with its classic hexagonal body has also had an elegant and frosty makeover. Glacier blue or pearly white, it materialises your ideas daily, allowing you to draw, sketch or jot down your thoughts delicately and precisely.
And to keep your thoughts and ideas safe, complete the collection with an A5 Alpine Frost notebook. Its cover features a design inspired by the outlines of snow-capped mountains, and its 120 pages of FSC™ paper will keep your words, sketches and all your inspirations safe, day after day.
