Founded 1992
Crafted by hand. Shaped by heart. Worn by intention.
For over three decades, BAI-DZ has practiced the quiet art of beaded writing instruments. Born from a small Parisian atelier, our pieces have travelled the desks of poets, executives, and quiet craftspeople alike.
Origins
From a single bead.
It began with a single freshwater pearl threaded onto a silver pen by our founder Élise Marchand. What started as a personal indulgence quickly became a quiet sensation among friends, then collectors, then the world.
Today, every BAI-DZ is still hand-strung in our Paris atelier by a small team of artisans, each piece taking up to four hours to complete.
