About the S.T. Dupont Brand
S.T. Dupont is French luxury with serious “power pen” energy—born in Paris in 1872, when Simon Tissot Dupont opened his first leatherwork shop. The brand’s writing instruments famously took off after Jackie Kennedy requested a pen to match her Ligne 1 lighter, sparking the creation of the first luxury ballpoint and cementing Dupont’s reputation for exquisite lacquer and fine metalwork.

S.T. Dupont has a 145-year legacy of creating exceptional products for exceptional people. Their business emphasizes fine French craftsmanship through traditional techniques passed down from the earliest days of the first workshop, combined with innovative technology, which enables S.T. Dupont to achieve the product quality they are so proud to create. One of their honed techniques is their signature lacquer that can be found on many of their writing instruments, an organic material that is resistant to shocks, scratches, and fire. With the brand's focus on quality and lasting style, S.T. Dupont aims to be the perfect gift.
S.T. Dupont's line of writing instruments came to fruition when the brand was asked by Jackie Kennedy, First Lady at the time, to create a pen to match her Ligne 1 lighter, one of Dupont's signature products. At the time and for years before, S.T. Dupont was revered for their lighters, which were considered a status symbol within society. The lighters have been praised as a triumph of fine metalwork that complements their signature lacquer. Without their luxury lighters, Dupont would not have had the catalyst to create the first luxury ballpoint pen.

Blown away by the service at Pen Chalet. My S.T. Dupont lighter arrived way faster than I expected, which was great since I thought it might be out of stock. I had to call customer service with a question, and a real person picked up immediately and was incredibly helpful. The lighter is perfect. 5/5 stars, will definitely shop here again!

One of a kind ballpoint very distinctive in terms of quality and style. Very different to my other ball points (Mont Blanc, Lamy, Porsche, Caran d'Ache), not just a sleeve for a Parker-style refill but a ballpoint that has a distinctive heft.
Hope Pen Chalet features other distinctive finds.

Wow...what a stunning pen. This pen is truly a piece of art. I loaded mine up with some iroshizuku ka-Jaku(which is a fast drying ink) and found the nib to be rather dry. She still writes nice and smooth though. The pen is smaller than I thought it would be but still holds an appropriate amount of weight that gives the pen an “I am expensive” kind of feel. Don't even get me started on the satisfying feel of closing the cap! When posted, the weight is still even and the cap is secure(maybe a little too secure).
