The Ecridor pens from Caran d’Ache owe their success to their classic hexagonal design, robust construction, and legendary reliability.  Now this much-loved range includes a fountain pen and a roller ball/fiber-tipped pen as well as a ball point and mechanical pencil.  The Ecridor line therefore offers two complete collections with four types of writing instruments decorated in three favorite patterns:  Chevron, Rétro and the new Maya.  The bodies of all the pens are made of brass with 10-micron silver plating and a rhodium finish. The fountain pen is available with a steel nib.
