FAQ

It works on natural paper. Avoid coated paper as it prevents metal oxidation.

The writing of the Ethergraf-tipped pen is not intended for daily use such as taking work notes or signing documents. It is a tool that prefers a slow gesture to a quick flow, closer to a sketch, to an evocative annotation, to a mark that tells an idea instead of filling a page. A design object that lives on the desk as a silent companion and not as a substitute for traditional pens.

The Ethergraf® tip

The ETHERGRAF® tip allows you to write without using ink or graphite, simply by exploiting the oxidation of the paper.
It microscopically "scratches" the paper, oxidizing it and leaving a light but indelible mark.
Thanks to its porosity, ordinary paper, i.e. untreated cellulose paper (made from plant fibres bonded together through a process called "felting"), is a material that reacts perfectly to the passage of the metal tip.
