The Design

About Eternity Caneta

Eternity é uma caneta metálica concebida para a escrita do dia a dia. O corpo é feito de alumínio e é moldado por torneamento CNC de alta precisão a partir de um tubo de alumínio. A superfície é acetinada por jateamento de areia e polimento, sendo depois tratada com oxidação anódica para tornar a textura suave e brilhante. O acabamento acetinado suaviza o reflexo do metal e confere um toque delicado. A textura aleatória remete ao círculo como símbolo do tempo. O clipe é fundido em liga de zinco e retificado à mão, e uma estrutura de mola integrada mantém a caneta fixa em livros e bolsos.
