Lamy Aion Black Ballpoint Pen

Lamy Aion Black Ballpoint Pen

The Lamy Aion range is new for 2017. The smooth deep-drawn aluminium body components are the first of their kind and give the series a unique, harmonious appearance. Brushed and blasted surfaces are refined with a brilliant silk-matt anodic coating finish, creating formal tension. The sturdy high gloss polished clip perfectly rounds off the overall design. A new, exclusive to Aion nib completes the design.

Designed by Jasper Morrison, the Lamy aion is a beautifully made pen. The simplicity of the design is finished perfectly, with bead-blasted grip and brushed, anodised barrel contrasting against the shiny polished clip. All markings are laser-engraved for accuracy.

The result is a pen that looks really special, while maintaining an understated style. It doesn't grab your attention, but can hold it when you choose to give it. It's a perfect example of the functional and unobtrusive design for which Jasper Morrison has become renowned; working together with the cutting-edge German manufacturing which has made Lamy so respected.

Twist-action retract mechanism operates smoothly, turning at the top of the grip section to extend and retract the liquid-ink refill. Supplied fitted with medium black Lamy M16.

140mm long. Weighs 32g.

LAMY QUALITY

Highest quality in technology, processing and material is self-evident in Lamy pens. Lamy pens make a clear statement: ‘best value for money’.

LAMY DESIGN
Lamy Pens are self-contained and succinct. By tradition they embody the Bauhaus principle of functional design: ‘form follows function’. This approach makes Lamy pens unmistakable style icons and the name Lamy a quintessential brand.

LAMY: MADE IN GERMANY
Lamy pens embody the best German design tradition and engineering art. They stand out by virtue of innovation, reliability, restraint and status which does not relate to luxury but to intelligence.

Pens from Lamy can be seen on the New York Stock Exchange, at conferences in Tokyo, or in the lecture halls of Buenos Aires. And each of these pens first saw the light of day in Heidelberg, the city with Germany’s oldest university.

Here, just a few minutes by car from the world-famous ensemble of castle, old town and the River Neckar, Lamy develops and produces fountain pens, ink rollerballs, ballpoint pens and propelling pencils which have been amongst the most popular examples of modern design since 1966.

And, despite increasing globalisation, nothing will change this in future. Because Lamy is firmly rooted in its Heidelberg location. An employer of around 400 people from the city and its surrounding area, a patron of culture and a sponsor. But also a family firm which knows precisely that it draws part of its strength and authenticity from a vibrant region which for centuries has stood for science, research and cosmopolitanism.
