The story of Athene
A laconic, elegant design that wins you over with its simplicity. This small, compact ballpoint pen is handcrafted in our silversmith atelier in Italy, with cap and barrel in solid sterling silver 925.
Both are engraved in guilloché with a barleycorn pattern: tiny, regular grains that cover the silver like a fine texture and break the light into countless points, giving the pen a soft, even shine.
For those who want a small silver pen to carry with them everywhere.
From our workshop
Every Grifos pen is made by hand in our workshop in Castiglione Torinese.
