Overview

Inspired by Lake Geneva after nightfall, the Caran d’Ache Léman Bicolor Black fountain pen pairs black lacquer with a bright rhodium-coated cap.

Silky black lacquer covers the rounded brass barrel, while a silver-plated, rhodium-coated cap and clip provide the bright metal contrast. The two-tone design evokes Lake Geneva after nightfall; Léman is the lake’s French name. Caran d’Ache and Swiss Made are engraved on the ring, and a black lacquered hexagon repeats the barrel color at the top.

The fountain pen has an 18k gold nib with rhodium coating and a screw-on cap. It takes small Chromatics ink cartridges or a converter for bottled ink, with a piston converter and standard case included. Made in Switzerland, it measures 141 mm capped with a barrel diameter of 13.7 mm.
