The house
La Tradition de l'Écriture was born from the passion of Jules Le Cour and his son Eric for antique writing instruments.

Eric Le Cour is a member of the Cercle des experts de Paris en objets d'art et antiquités.

No shop: our workshop in Paris (17th) is open by appointment only. Meet us above all at our fairs.
