S.T. DUPONT X Orlinski
When sculptural gesture meets artisanal precision
a contemporary and pop touch
WHEN CREATIVITY SHAKES UP CONVENTIONS
S.T. Dupont is collaborating for the first time with Richard Orlinski, the world's best-selling French artist, for an exclusive partnership where sculptural art meets artisanal precision. Together, they have created a bold and contemporary collection, embodying a shared vision of creative luxury, raw and meticulously crafted.
With this collection, S.T. Dupont and Richard Orlinski are reinventing the House's icons: the Ligne 2 lighter and the Line D Eternity writing instrument, as well as Biggy, Slimmy, and the Initial ballpoint pen. Each piece is adorned with Richard Orlinski's artistic language, becoming a work of art in its own right.
Since 2015
Richard Orlinski has established himself as one of the most acclaimed international artists. A Parisian, he draws his inspiration from wild nature and instinctive emotions, which he sublimates through powerful and colorful works that are immediately recognizable.
His emblematic "Born Wild" series explores the frontier between animal instinct and human culture, between brutality and beauty. His angular sculptures, from the famous Kong to the moving panther, have become icons of strength and audacity.

Dialogue between creation and expertise
High creation S.T. DUPONT
The S.T. Dupont Haute Création workshop offers its own interpretation of this collaboration, both wild and controlled. In this exceptional edition, the Kong, Richard Orlinski's iconic figure, stands out as a symbol of strength and freedom.
In a Collector Set version, a 60 cm wild kong in vintage patinated bronze protects a lighter and
a precious writing instrument. The smaller Writing sculpture and Lighter sculpture versions
respectively hold a pen or a lighter. Both made of yellow gold finish bronze
with high-performance ceramic coating, these House icons are transformed into
true sculptures.
Using the characteristic facets of the artist's work, each of the two objects deconstructs
the gorilla's mouth, recreating unique works of art.
More than a collection, this Haute Création line asserts a conviction: art is lived, shared and makes existence sparkle. Haute Création x Richard Orlinski thus embodies a powerful fusion between the S.T. Dupont flame and the wild instinct of contemporary art.
