In 1906, German technician August Eberstein teamed up with Hamburg entrepreneurs Alfred Nehemias and Claus Johannes Voss to create a line of writing instruments with non-leaking technology. Their pioneering vision would change the course of writing history. Today, our artisans continue to combine traditional craftsmanship, precision and modern production techniques to create aspirational collections. The dedication of many great minds and skilled hands are needed to craft each piece, resulting in lifelong companions that can be passed from one generation to the next.
