The “Panthère” fountain pen combines Cartier’s jewelry-making expertise with the elegance of its writing instruments. Its design features fine longitudinal fluting paired with black motifs with polygonal outlines that evoke a panther’s fur, distributed across the grip section and the top of the cap. The hallmarks of the shiny metallic finish and the black decoration accentuate the rhythm of the composition, topped by a dark cabochon. The three central rings and the 18-karat gold nib complete this piece with its stylized lines, whose appeal lies in the integration of ornamental and functional details.
