La Maison S.T. Dupont unveils a new expression of its craftsmanship by reinventing one of its iconic writing instruments. More than a mere change of name, the transition from D-Initial to Initial reflects a subtle yet profound evolution: one of contemporary luxury: essential, fluid, and designed for everyday gestures.

Elegance in the service of style

The Initial pen is rooted in the heritage of the Maison while embracing a confident modernity. Its lines are refined, gaining in fluidity and dynamism, offering a sleek silhouette without compromising balance. Available in fountain pen, rollerball or ballpoint versions, Initial meets the expectations of today’s aesthetes in search of a writing companion that is as functional as it is beautiful. Designed for both women and men, Initial adapts to today’s uses: its cap, now able to be placed on the end of the pen, makes writing more natural and enjoyable. More than a tool, Initial becomes a breath of calm in a fast-paced world — a signature expressed with poise and elegance.

Its redesigned form is complemented by new finishes, such as matte black and white gold, which join the emblematic palette: black chrome, navy chrome, black gold and polished chrome. Ever true to its tradition, the Maison adorns the pen’s body with its legendary lacquer, a signature of exceptional craftsmanship. The new “Sword” clip, already present in the Line D Eternity and Liberté collections, replaces a more classic design to lend the object a bolder character. The nib, crafted in stainless steel and engraved with a delicate “wings” motif, embodies the artisanal excellence dear to S.T. Dupont. Available in three finishes: gold, chrome and black, it adds the perfect final touch to this precious detail.

A name, a symbol

Choosing the name “Initial” is about going to the essence. The essence of style, of presence, of line. It is about an understated elegance, anchored in everyday ritual. Initial is a tribute to the icons of the past, revisited with precision for today’s world. It embodies reinvented tradition, accessible luxury, and the finest in functional design. With Initial, every word regains its weight. Every signature becomes truly meaningful. La Maison S.T. Dupont hereby writes a new chapter in its story, faithful to its DNA and resolutely turned toward the future.
