Each of the Tao pen's metal trimmings, tapered tip, finely engraved vertex with stylized Duchessa 1935 logoed symbologies, and arched profile clasp with a spoon-shaped end typical of the 1920s has been electroplated with satin-finished ruthenium, rose gold, and palladium.

Duchessa 1935 presents its new line dedicated to Tao with a sphere/roller carved from a turned resin bar where white blends with black creating a movement that represents the path, the becoming, the opposite, the complementary.
