ALPINE FROST COLLECTION: A SPECIAL EDITION IN FROSTY COLOURS TO CELEBRATE THE FESTIVE SEASON

Caran d’Ache has drawn inspiration from the snowy peaks of the Alps in winter to celebrate the magic of the holiday season. With its Special Edition Alpine Frost collection, the Swiss Maison takes you on a poetic journey to the heart of the winter wonderlands. From writing instruments in frosty colours to scented coloured pencils, each piece captures the dazzle of an icy lake and the majesty of snow-capped summits

Conceived as a tribute to winter and the century-old know-how of Caran d’Ache, this exclusive collection combines elegance, creativity and sophistication. The Léman ballpoint pens, Ecridor™ pens, 849™ pens, A5 notebooks, two-tone pencils and our iconic sharpener have all been given a wintry makeover: in polar blue and pearly white, each piece embodies the season.

Are you looking for Christmas gift ideas? The Alpine Frost Special Edition by Caran d’Ache is sure to delight lovers of colour as much as those who are passionate about writing.

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.

HAUTE ECRITURE, INSTRUMENTS CRAFTED WITH EXPERTISE

 

The Léman™ Alpine Frost ballpoint pen: elegance in its purest form

 
What makes your writing sessions special? The Léman™ Alpine Frost ballpoint pen catches the light thanks to its delicate “clou de Paris” guilloche work coated in a translucent polar blue lacquer. The pen’s rhodium-plated clip and push button emphasise the pen’s elegance. Writing is easy and flowing from the very first use thanks to its medium Goliath black ink cartridge.

The Ecridor™ Alpine Frost, much more than a ballpoint pen


With its hexagonal body engraved with a pattern inspired by snowy mountain slopes, the Ecridor™ Alpine Frost pen combines strength and delicacy. Are you looking for an item with character? Here it is. Presented in a polar blue leather case lined with pearly white, it evokes the delicate contrasts between mountains and light. A piece designed to last, at your side for all your ideas and writing.

Make a refined and lasting gift this Christmas.

The iconic Swiss Made sharpener


Even the most mundane of everyday objects can become exceptional pieces. Available in iridescent glacier blue, Caran d’Ache’s iconic sharpener has had a makeover as a nod to the Alpine Frost collection. Its nickel-plated details add subtle glints, like frost catching the sunlight.
 

A brand-new olfactory experience


The writing experience is also about sensations. With the Crayons de La Maison Alpine Frost scented colour pencils, created in collaboration with the Geneva-based Maison Mizensir, Caran d’Ache has added a new olfactory dimension. Scented with “Red Carnation”, a floral and spicy blend, the pencils emit a delicate scent of jasmine, pink pepper and clove. Three wood essences - blue poplar, turquoise blue zebrano, and black and white ayous - complete this unexpected experience. Suddenly, writing becomes a unique sensorial adventure.

ALPINE FROST: A GIFT BOX TO GIVE - OR KEEP - THIS CHRISTMAS


The Alpine Frost collection brings together everything that sets Caran d’Ache apart -  Swiss know-how, refined elegance, poetry and everyday use. Pens, mechanical pencils, two-tone pencils, sharpening machines or the Maison’s scented pencils, each creation combines beauty and practicality.

Presented in a gift box adorned with geometric patterns that are reminiscent of snow-capped peaks, this Special Edition is both a precious and inspiring holiday gift.

Giving Alpine Frost is making a unique gift: the symbiosis of Swiss expertise and the poetry of winter, for lovers of writing and fine arts alike.
