From the dawn of time, S.T.Dupont has created exceptional pieces for kings, emperors, maharajahs, then for people of power and influence, for collectors looking for exceptional and exclusive products. S.T.Dupont continues this tradition by going into partnership with Philippe Tournaire, jeweler, designer and creator in order to create works of art.

S.T.Dupont is celebrating the 10th anniversary of its Haute Creations Series by paying tribute to 11 iconic places around the world. Paris – the Company’s Home – makes up over a quarter of the 23 new pieces being introduced:

• Maison S.T. Dupont, in collaboration with master jeweler 2Saints, has hand-crafted the newest architecture collection. Fashioned from silver, the pen features stunning, elaborate filigree overlays over colored lacquer. The pen comes with two caps, one topped with a stunning silver model of the statue. The elaborate base serves as a pen stand and as a stand for the cap not currently in use and is hand-patinated for optimal contrast.

• The Winged Victory of Samothrace – also known as Nike of Samothrace – is a Greek sculpture from the Hellenistic period, culpted around the 2nd century BC – found on the island of Samothrace. It represents the goddess Nike (the Greek goddess of victory) and stands on a base the shape of a ship’s bow. Since 1884, it has been prominently displayed at the Louvre and is one of a small number of major Hellenistic statues, surviving in the original, rather than Roman copies.
