From the turn to the point.
The mechanism of the writing and drawing instrument is made in Germany: When the twis table head is turned, the chuck opens at the tip and the graphite is pushed forward at the same time. When the twist mechanism is released,the chuck closes and holds the graphite in place.Inside the Drehgriffel Nr. 2 there is also a chamber that holds several refills at once and immediately pushes the next one forward when the other has been used up.

Wassily Kandinsky, painter and lecturer at the Bauhaus school, summed it up neatly when he said: �Everything starts from a dot.’ This quote highlights the fact that for creative minds, the process of committing ideas to paper via the hand begins with a dot on the page. The first point of contact between thoughts and paper – a crucial moment.

Clean, minimalist forms, functional details and classic colours are key features of the modern era’s most influential design school – and also the principles that have always guided the design of LEUCHTTURM1917 products.

As a tribute to the revolutionary Bauhaus style, we have created a special edition that encompasses a notebook, Pen Loop and Drehgriffel and whose form, colour and details honour the pioneering Bauhaus ethos.
