The 849 Alexander Girard limited edition was born of the desire of Caran d’Ache, Vitra, and Studio Girard to decorate the 849 with the joyous cult patterns dreamt up by Alexander Girard. This multi-talented creator revolutionized the history of 20th century design by leaving his colorful, graphic mark on everyday objects. With a keen interest in textures, patterns and folk art, Alexander Girard collected the writing instruments which enabled him to express his creativity.
