About the Item
A monumental one-of-one fountain pen sculpted as a full three-dimensional imperial dragon, created by master lapidary Luis Alberto Quispe Aparicio and retailed by S.T. Dupont, Atelier Haute Création.

This extraordinary unique 1/1 masterpiece was commissioned in 2018 by the CEO of S.T. Dupont as a personal request to world-renowned lapidary artist Luis Alberto Quispe Aparicio. Crafted exclusively for a prominent Japanese V.I.P. collector, whose identity remains confidential, this pen stands as a singular creation — never replicated and unavailable to the public.
Executed with exceptional precision and artistic vision, this piece represents the rare intersection of haute French luxury heritage and museum-level gemstone artistry. S.T. Dupont entrusted Luis Alberto, celebrated for transforming precious stones into sculptural treasures, to bring this one-of-a-kind vision to life.
This pen embodies ultimate discretion, rarity, and prestige — a private commission that elevates it far beyond limited editions and into the realm of true collectors’ art objects.
A complete set having the original base, box and box cover.
For the distinguished collector who's looking for 1/1 items.
