The origins of [[Météore]] are uncertain, the company was founded in 1916 as ''Manifacture Parisienne de PPR'' (''Porte Plume Reservoir'') by ''L. Demilly'' (then general manager) and ''L. Degen'' (then managing director), based in Nanterre, then become ''[[La Plume d'Or]]'' in 1921. It is not known whether the company is descended from ''Franco-British Manufacturing Pen'' founded by Charcellay in Paris in 1910.  ''[[La Plume d'Or]]'' was still on the market after the end of World War I, producing two brands: [[Météore]] and [[L. Badois]], and also for third parties. The second brand is linked to the activity of ''Luis Badois'', holder of fountain pen patents both for his own then jointly with the '[[La Plume d'Or]]''.

The [[Météore]] first models were black or marbled  hard rubber [[eyedropper]] or [[safety]] pens, similar to those of other French manufacturers of the same era, to which they added later[[lever filler]] models. The first pen clearly associated with the brand was introduced in 1922, was characterized by incision of the [[Météore]] name on the cap, decorated also with a white ring at the top, and had the lever end in the form of a shamrock. The nibs were often marked with the initials (''D & D'') of the founders. In this period were produced [[safety]] or [[lever filler]] ebonite fountain pens in two dimensions for both men and women. Model names of this period are [[Zodiac]] and [[Prompto]].

The company switched to [[celluloid]] quite late, a second set of models was launched in 1932, keeping the [[lever filler]] but with a [[washer clip]] and two rings on lower edge of the hood, over the classical one at the top. The pens were black or marbled, but were also produced models in [[BCHR|chased hard rubber]] with [[overlay]] in lacquered metal, gold, silver.
