The history of the pen is our history

At Platignum we have always believed that writing should be a pleasure.

Even in these days of emails, blogs and texts, the pen retains a special appeal that is both visible and tangible.

Our designers understand and express this balance, crafting every pen to be a pleasure to behold, to hold, to use and to give.

The marriage of form and function is reflected in the design, the materials, the performance and the feel of every Platignum pen.

Design Concept

Every Platignum writing instrument is designed to be perfectly weighted, smooth to write with and subtly beautiful. The process begins with a quiver of inspiration that quickly skips from squiggles and lines, to exciting sketches and ideas.

Distinctive Detailing

Beauty and fine detailing isn't an embellishment, it's an essential part of the appeal of every Platignum pen. From the knurled design of the end cap to the tip of the iridium nib, every detail is precision-engineered using expertise gained from almost 90 years of pen manufacture.
