Le Potier D'Etain crafts elegant and useful dipping pens and desk accessories like letter openers, pen stands, ink wells, magnifying glasses, distinctive wax seals and charming bookmarks.

Papier Plume is proud to be the exclusive US distributor for these remarkable handmade solid pewter treasures. Their attention to detail makes all their creations easily mistaken for true antiques. Their dip pens and inkwells are heaven for calligraphers, be they students or professionals. It's rare that the most beautiful products are also the best performing, but with their perfect balance and weight, their dip pens are arguably the best we carry.

Who are the artisans behind they exquisite creations? The Brassac family, master pewter-smiths for 6 generations and located in the village of Bourg de Péage. They have recently been accredited as an Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant (EPV, Living Heritage Company). In France this is a great honor, and justly deserved.
