LUXURIOUS ART DECO STYLING MARKS THE NEW CENTURY® SIGNET COLLECTION BY CROSS®

Gold and silver shine, vintage appeal with a nod to old Hollywood luxe…these are some of the standout trends for spring and summer. Right in sync with fashion currents, CROSS resurrects one of its timeless designs that is in glorious harmony with the mood of the season – the luxurious Century Signet pen in precious metals.

The slim silhouette of this writing instrument, with its elongated point and retro inspired ball clip, instantly conveys Art Deco elegance. The Century Signet collection features precious metals (18 KT gold, 18 KT gold filled, platinum-plated, and sterling silver) presented in a sophisticated style that would be perfectly at home in a classic clutch or in the pocket of a bespoke suit. This update of an original, 1930’s design (Signet was one of the company’s early, successful entries into the arena of pens) harkens back to the CROSS heritage of consistently producing refined, contemporary products. In attractive contrast to the precious metal finish of Signet, CROSS incorporates inlaid black lacquer bands that circle the body of the writing instrument.

Available in ball-point pen and pencil (pencil only available in 18 KT gold finish) beginning in May, this collection includes these items (suggested retail prices listed):

• Solid 18K gold ball-point pen with solid gold clip $1,200
• Solid 18K gold pencil – 0.5mm $1,200
