BENU was created in January 2016 with the aim to ‘make writing instruments and desk accessories for those who prefer bold, bright colours and new designs that are playful, stylish and fun’. The name BENU is inspired by the ancient Egyptian god associated with the sun, creation and rebirth and the Benu bird, which is one of the oldest known names of the phoenix, a majestic creature that is reborn throughout time. BENU pens are truly something different, they have a distinctive design and pronounced character with unique patterns and colour combinations.
The Benu Talisman collection is inspired by myths and legends, it fuses elements believed to bring luck, protection, money or love. Most people will recognize the word “edelweiss” from the famous 1965 musical, Sound of Music. However, this small, non-toxic plant, with its snow-white leaves and star-shaped inflorescence, is often associated with certain myths related to bravery and discovering true love.
