21 March 2025There are objects that do not follow time, but transcend it, preserving their elegance untouched. For Pineider, leather belts have always been one of these: an iconic accessory, capable of expressing the luxury of Italian craftsmanship with quiet sophistication. Today, that chapter of our story reopens with a new protagonist: the double-sided leather belt, a perfect balance between tradition and modernity. One Accessory, Two Styles Crafted from semi-gloss calfskin with a subtle palmellato texture, this belt represents the height of refinement. The leather, carefully selected from the finest hides, has a full, smooth feel—designed to endure and improve with time, gaining character and softness. The central padding is not merely an aesthetic detail but a functional feature that ensures a natural fit, enhancing the silhouette—especially when paired with tailored trousers and formal looks. The true signature of this accessory is the satin-finished steel rotating buckle, which allows you to switch sides in seconds, offering two colors in a single belt. A detail that makes all the difference, especially for frequent travelers or those who value versatility without compromise. The Luxury of Functionality Each Pineider belt is a tribute to quality and attention to detail. Here, luxury is not about show, but substance: premium materials, a design conceived for comfort, and craftsmanship that can be felt at the touch. The return of leather belts to our collection is not just a celebration of our heritage—it’s a statement of intent: to revive the pleasure of well-made things, designed for those who know how to appreciate them.

IT’S ALL PAPERWORK: the works of Yansu Wang in collaboration with Pineider
28 January 2025When Chinese artist Yansu Wang moved to Italy in 2015, she was gifted a notebook featuring a map of Milan. That seemingly simple gesture sparked a journey of creative exploration. Using recycled materials like receipts, movie tickets, brochures, and even candy wrappers, Yansu began creating a personal “Junk Journal” to document her daily life through collage. Her work, now on display at N.51 in Milan, features an array of her vibrant pop-up books alongside new pieces crafted in collaboration with Pineider. Known for its exquisite stationery, Pineider provided its luxurious papers and notebooks, offering Yansu a unique canvas to bring her latest creations to life. A Cultural and Historical Intersection Collage as an art form is often associated with the early 20th century movements of Cubism, Futurism, Dadaism, Surrealism, and Pop Art. However, Yansu’s work draws on a lesser-known but equally rich tradition of collage in her native China. Paper, invented in China around 200 BCE, has long been a medium for artistic expression. By the 10th century, it was widely used in China and Japan for both practical and creative purposes. Yansu’s exhibition also pays homage to the Bapo tradition—or “Eight Brokens”—a distinctive collage technique that emerged in mid-19th century China. Bapo compositions juxtapose torn, burned, or fragmented elements such as calligraphic texts, inscriptions, and decayed letters to deconstruct cultural symbols and provoke thought. This deeply intellectual art form, rich in symbolism, invites viewers to uncover hidden meanings, aphorisms, and wordplay embedded within its layered visuals. Rediscovering Forgotten Narratives The Bapo tradition was brought back into the spotlight in 2017 through an exhibition at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, curated by Nancy Berliner, who described it as “a historic and radically modern-looking art form that had never been recorded.” Yansu Wang’s current work echoes this rediscovery, as she experiments with Bapo-inspired techniques to reinterpret her own visual archive. By merging Pineider’s luxurious craftsmanship with her collage art, Yansu Wang bridges cultural and historical divides, creating a body of work that is both deeply personal and universally resonant. Her pieces explore the juxtaposition of words, symbols, and meanings, offering a modern lens on a timeless art form. An Invitation to Explore IT’S ALL PAPERWORK is more than an exhibition; it’s an invitation to reflect on the narratives hidden within the everyday and to explore how traditions can find new life in contemporary art. Whether you’re drawn by the meticulous craftsmanship of Pineider’s materials or the rich cultural history that underpins Yansu’s collages, this exhibition promises a thought-provoking journey through time, memory, and creativity. Make sure to visit N.51 in Milan before March 16 to experience this unique artistic dialogue. Aggiungi ai preferiti

Emma Nolde: The Magic of Handwriting and the Power of Time
In today’s hyper-digital world, there are still those who choose handwriting as a tool for deep connection with themselves. Emma Nolde, an Italian singer-songwriter with an intense voice and poetic writing style, has recently released her new album NUOVOSPAZIOTEMPO. She shares with us her intimate relationship with paper, pen, and time. Writing and Inspiration: Between Journals and Scattered Pages Emma admits she doesn’t have a single method for writing her songs. Sometimes she uses a computer, other times her phone, or even loose sheets of paper. But her journal is the special place where her initially chaotic thoughts take shape. “My journal is the place that houses my disordered thoughts,” she says. It’s here that ideas germinate and, over time, become songs. The Connection Between Writing and Time For Emma, handwriting is more than a physical act: it’s a therapeutic experience. “When I write in my journal, something magically therapeutic happens,” she explains. The simple act of transferring thoughts onto paper makes her worries feel less overwhelming, like a glass of water after a long wait. She adds, “Most of our anxieties are tied to the passing of time, and writing on paper slows it down immensely.” Handwriting: A Mirror of the Soul The way Emma writes says a lot about her. “I write in cursive, rather small and angular, not rounded. The older I get, the more my handwriting resembles my father’s.” This detail, halfway between inheritance and imitation, holds deep meaning for her and makes her particularly attentive to the handwriting of those around her. “The way someone writes hides important insights into their character,” she says, revealing her curiosity about observing the handwriting of artists she admires. Pen or Pencil? A Definitive Choice When it comes to writing tools, Emma has no doubts: the pen, strictly black and strictly rollerball or gel. “Never ballpoint,” she clarifies, reflecting an awareness that mirrors her personal style and attention to detail. Writing as an Act of Resistance In an era where time seems increasingly fleeting, Emma Nolde invites us to slow down, to return to paper, to let ourselves be cradled by the rhythm of thoughts turning into words. Her handwriting, like her music, reflects a unique identity that intertwines personal and universal stories. Emma Nolde reminds us that handwriting is not just an ancient gesture but a powerful tool for finding order in chaos, slowing time, and expressing oneself with authenticity. Aggiungi ai preferiti
Discover the “1774” Room Diffuser by Pineider: The Essence of Florence Captured in a scent
3 October 2024In the heart of Tuscany, Florence has always been synonymous with art, culture, and refinement. And it was in this city, back in 1774, that Pineider was born—a brand that now celebrates over 250 years of artisanal excellence. The Pineider “1774” home fragrance is much more than just a scent: it is a true sensory journey through the centuries, transporting you to the elegance and grandeur of 18th-century Florence. A Fragrance that Tells a Story The “1774” home fragrance is inspired by the atmosphere of the noble residences of 18th-century Florence. At that time, elegance and luxury were paramount, and Florentine nobility loved surrounding themselves with art and exotic perfumes. One of the most sought-after scents was Oud, a rare and precious fragrance that arrived from distant lands, capable of bringing a touch of mystery and sophistication to any space. The “1774” fragrance captures this exotic essence and blends it with notes of cedarwood, sandalwood, and amber, creating a rich, enveloping, and timeless aroma. Each diffusion takes you on an olfactory journey through history, evoking images of refined salons, intellectual gatherings, and a time when art and luxury permeated daily life.

All the accessories and knots that adorn the bottles are handcrafted by skilled Florentine artisans, continuing the centuries-old tradition of high craftsmanship that has made Pineider famous worldwide. Additionally, the diffuser comes with natural wooden sticks, designed to gently and gradually diffuse the fragrance. The beauty of this system is that it allows you to adjust the intensity of the scent: simply rotate the sticks once or more times a day to achieve a stronger aroma. How to Choose the Right Size? Each size of the “1774” diffuser serves a specific purpose, depending on the space and needs: – 2.5L: Ideal for those who seek not just a fragrance but a true design piece for large spaces.

How to Refill Your Ballpoint Pen
11 April 2024Ballpoint pens are timeless writing instruments, synonymous with style and practicality. Their versatility makes them perfect for all occasions, from jotting down quick reminders to penning lengthy letters. However, to achieve maximum performance and fully utilize their potential, it is crucial to know how to properly refill a ballpoint pen. Below, you’ll find all the tips to keep your writing tool always ready to capture your most important thoughts. Choosing the Right Nib for Ballpoint Pen Refills Selecting the right nib is a crucial and personalized step that directly impacts your writing experience. To refill your ballpoint pen without errors, consider several factors that play a decisive role, including line thickness, ink type, and the overall durability of the nib. Line Thickness: If you prefer finer lines that allow for precise and detailed writing, opt for an extra-fine or fine nib. If you favor thicker, bolder strokes, a wider, medium nib might be the ideal choice, adding a distinctive touch to your handwriting. Ink Type: Ballpoint nibs offer a wide range of options, including water-based, gel, or oil-based inks. Each has unique characteristics that influence the fluidity of writing, drying time, and water resistance. Durability: A high-quality nib might last longer, ensuring smooth writing over time. Consider how frequently you use your ballpoint pen and select a nib that suits your lifestyle, minimizing the need for frequent replacements. In short, choosing the right nib is a process that combines personal style and practical functionality. Take the time to explore the available options: your ballpoint pen will thus be personalized according to your preferences, transforming every writing moment into a unique and rewarding experience. Preparing Your Workspace for Ballpoint Pen Refill Preparing your workspace is essential for a smooth ballpoint pen refill. By following a few practical tips, you can ensure an efficient and trouble-free refill process. Start by ensuring you have all the necessary tools within reach. These might include the new refill, a soft cloth, a sheet of paper, or a napkin, depending on your preferences. If your ballpoint pen requires a light cleaning before refilling, use the cloth to remove any ink residue from the nib. This ensures a free and even flow during subsequent writing. Place your ballpoint pen on a stable and clean surface. Avoid uneven or sloped surfaces to prevent the risk of falls or accidental movements. The surface should be free from obstacles that could interfere with the flow of the refill. To prevent unwanted ink stains, protect the work surface with a sheet of paper or a napkin. In summary, preparing your workspace is a critical step: ensure you have all the necessary tools, create a clean and organized environment, and protect the work surface to prevent unwanted stains. By following these tips, your ballpoint pen will always be ready for impeccable writing. How to Refill a Ballpoint Pen The crucial moment of inserting the new refill requires precision and attention to ensure a smooth and uninterrupted ink flow. Follow these steps to correctly insert the refill into your ballpoint pen: Check the Nib Type: Before starting, make sure you know the type of nib of your ballpoint pen. Some ballpoint pens have a screw-top, while others require a simple insertion. This information will be crucial for the correct placement of the refill. Ensure the Pen is Empty: Before proceeding with the new refill, ensure that the pen is completely out of ink. This will avoid confusion or contamination with different types of ink. Precisely Position the Refill: If your ballpoint pen requires insertion via a screw-top, position the new refill and gently rotate it clockwise until it is fully screwed in. If your pen requires direct insertion, make sure the refill is properly placed in its housing. Avoid Forcing: Be careful not to push the refill too hard into the pen. A proper installation should be smooth and effortless. Always follow the specific instructions provided by your ballpoint pen manufacturer. Wait a Few Moments: After insertion, wait before using the pen. This allows the ink to flow properly towards the nib, ensuring uniform writing from the first use. Ballpoint Pen Refill: Function Check and Maintenance Once the new refills for ballpoint pens are inserted, it’s time to ensure they function perfectly. Follow these steps: Test on a Sheet of Paper: Write on a sheet of paper to check that the ink flow is smooth and uninterrupted. Fluid and regular writing is a sign of a successful refill insertion. Examine the Nib: Look closely at the nib in the light to ensure there are no obstructions. If you notice ink residue or other particles, gently clean the nib with a soft cloth to maintain a consistent ink flow and prevent future issues. Check the Closure Mechanism: If your ballpoint pen has a closure mechanism, such as a cap, ensure it closes correctly. This will protect the nib and prevent ink leakage when the pen is not in use. Remember to store your ballpoint pen horizontally when not in use to avoid ink leaks and always use the cap, if available, to protect the nib from excessive contamination. Also, avoid pressing too hard during writing to prolong the nib’s life. Regularly check the ink level and replace the refill when necessary for continuous and trouble-free writing. Conclusion In conclusion, the process of refilling top-quality ballpoint pens is not just a practical necessity but a ritual that preserves the beauty and efficiency of such a precious tool. By following the detailed steps of choosing the nib, preparing the workspace, inserting the new refill, and checking its function, you can keep your luxury Pineider ballpoint pen in optimal condition.
