In 1584, the papermaker Merten Spieß, with the permission of the Duke of Brunswick, began to create premium writing paper in a paper mill in the Solling hills. Back then, he worked by hand, sheet by sheet, using fine watermarks and deckled edges. For over four centuries Hahnemühle has consistently developed along the lines of its founder and is now establishing the new FineNotes business unit on this foundation.
The first classic notebook “1584 by Hahnemühle” is now being followed by further premium stationery products in the new product range. Hahnemühle’s more than 400 years of unbroken German manufacturing tradition meets the global zeitgeist – with luxury writing instruments, high-quality notebooks and the finest writing papers.
The three product groups in detail:
FineNotes Writing Instruments – Luxury writing instruments for the finest papers
Hahnemühle is starting with three series that bear the proud name “Originals”. Each series includes fountain pen, rollerball and ballpoint pen. A noble detail of all fountain pens: an 18 carat gold nib with line width M. Inspired by the pattern of the cylinder mould in the paper machine from the 19th century, the exclusive writing instruments of the Hahnemühle Originals First Edition and the Hahnemühle Originals Slim series present themselves with a fine, guilloché surface. In the Hahnemühle Originals First Edition there are only 100 of each available worldwide! The Slim Edition is available in two elegant colours – beige and cool grey.
The writing instruments in the Hahnemühle Originals Bold series make a real statement in terms of form and material and are a reminiscence of Hahnemühle’s founding father, papermaker Merten Spieß.
