S.T. DUPONT X orlinski
When sculptural gesture meets artisanal precision
a contemporary and pop touch
When creation disrupts conventions
S.T. Dupont partners for the first time with Richard Orlinski, the world’s best-selling French artist, for an exclusive collaboration where sculptural gesture meets artisanal precision. Together, they unveil a bold, contemporary collection—an embodiment of a shared vision of creative luxury, raw yet crafted with uncompromising excellence.
With this collection, S.T. Dupont and Richard Orlinski reinvent the Maison’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 infused 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 artists on the international stage. A Paris native, he draws inspiration from the wild and from instinctive emotions, elevating them through powerful, vibrant works that are instantly recognizable.
His iconic *Born Wild* series explores the boundary between animal instinct and human culture, between brutality and beauty. From the angular lines of the famous Kong to the panther in motion, his sculptures have become icons of strength and boldness.

A dialogue between creativity and craftsmanship
S.T. DUPONT Haute Creation
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 as a symbol of strength and freedom. In a Collector Set version, a 60 cm Wild Kong in vintage patinated bronze protects a precious lighter and writing instrument. The smaller Writing Sculpture and Lighter Sculpture versions hold a pen or lighter, respectively. Both, crafted in yellow gold-finished bronze with a high-performance ceramic coating, transform the Maison’s icons into true sculptures.
Using the artist’s signature facets, each piece deconstructs the gorilla’s jaw, creating unique works of art. More than a collection, this Haute Création line affirms a belief: art is to be lived, shared, and made to illuminate life. Haute Création x Richard Orlinski thus embodies a powerful fusion between the S.T. Dupont flame and the wild instinct of contemporary art.
