Caran d'Ache

Caran d’Ache is a Swiss brand known for its premium pens, coloured pencils and high-quality artists’ materials. Founded in Geneva in 1915, the company has since developed writing and drawing instruments that combine Swiss precision, thoughtful design and carefully selected materials.

Among Caran d’Ache’s most iconic writing instruments is the Fixpencil, the mechanical lead holder first introduced in the 1920s. Another icon is the Caran d’Ache 849, the distinctive hexagonal pen available in a wide range of colours and finishes. The collection also includes Ecridor, a series of elegant writing instruments featuring distinctive engraved patterns, with models including ballpoint pens, rollerballs and fountain pens.

Caran d’Ache is equally well known for its coloured pencils and artists’ materials. Caran d’Ache Luminance are professional coloured pencils with high pigmentation and excellent lightfastness. Pablo is another favourite for drawing and illustration, while Museum Aquarelle combines the precision of a coloured pencil with the ability to work with water and create watercolour effects.

The range also includes Caran d’Ache Neocolor, the well-known artists’ crayons used for everything from drawing and illustration to mixed media. Neocolor II is water-soluble and can be used both dry and with water, offering plenty of possibilities for experimenting with different techniques and effects.

Whether you’re looking for Caran d’Ache coloured pencils for professional drawing, Neocolor for creative work or a classic 849, Fixpencil or Ecridor, the brand combines functionality with Swiss design and quality.
