At the crossroads of design and technology, of tradition and innovation: the Pininfarina Aero
Its futuristic pen body is constructed from exclusive aerospace-grade materials with a shape inspired by the principle of torsion. The shape also evokes the infinity symbol. The stand is constructed from rough and unfinished cement as a contrast to the modern pen material. Together, the materials reflect a new chapter in the Pininfarina brand history. A writing tool that is timeless and explorative at the same time.
Ethergraf® is a specially designed tip that microscopically oxidizes paper to produce a light mark that is more faint than typical pencil’s. It works best with naturally untreated and rough paper to allow permanent reactions to take place with this unique metal tip. It is inspired by the special silver tip concept devised by Leonardo da Vinci centuries ago. The alloy has been created in cooperation with leading Italian researchers. A trademark alloy conceived, realized, and hand-forged in Italy.
