Black is closing in on silver as the world’s most popular car color, according to a study released by auto paint firm DuPont.
The Global Automotive Color Popularity Report, now in its 58th year, analysed information and trends from 11 automotive regions around the world and concluded that black moved one percentage point closer to the most popular color, silver.
Silver accounts for 26 percent of autos globally, while black accounts for 24 percent and white/white pearl and gray hold joint third place with 16 percent each.


S.T. Dupont has worked with jewelry designer Philippe Tournaire to produce a series of writing instruments based on the world’s greatest structures.
Called “Architectural Masterpieces,” the series is inspired by three iconic monuments of the contemporary world—Paris’ Les Invalides, Russia’s St. Basil’s Cathedral, and China’s Pagoda of the Sun.
The roofing of the structures is made of solid 18 karat gold while the pens’ cylinders are manually plated and polished in bronze.


The luxurious French accessories label S.T.Dupont launches a new limited edition called Neptune (Neptune is the God of Water and the Sea in Roman mythology).
S.T.Dupont is paying tribute to this crucial element –water- through this limited edition that embodies waves and serenity in deep blue Chinese placed lacquer.
With just 888 units up for sale, the gift set includes one Ligne 2 lighter, and three Olympio Large pens, which is, a fountain pen, a roller and a ballpoint.


The French company S.T. DuPont has decided to enter the mobile market by making a cell phone in collaboration with Pantech.
Of course, a luxury model like the Pantech Sky Dupont IM-U510LE is less about the features and more about appearance.
The handset has gold-plated edges and it features a 3 inch touchscreen display, 2G-only connectivity, GPS and a 3MP camera.


S.T. Dupont, makers of the world’s most expensive lighter, have come out with an equally luxurious lighter inspired by classic Parisian architecture.
Christened the Place Vendôme limited edition Ligne 2 Prestige, this lighter is made from rose gold lighter and is embellished with 192 diamonds.
Defined by its majestic proportions and a strong sense of symmetry it’s one of the most emblematic examples of French 17th century architecture.
In 1810 following his victory at Austerlitz, Napoleon enriched the square by erecting the Vendôme Column.
