GRAF von FABER CASTELL ELEMENTO Olive Fountain Pen
Description
The Graf von Faber-Castell Collection celebrated the 250th anniversary of Faber-Castell with a very special limited edition with a barrel made of cross-grained olive wood, constructed with an innovative technique that enables the grain of the wood to be displayed in a way previously unknown. Like a masterpiece of marquetry, the cross-grained olive wood is fitted into the barrel in six individual elements, which are varnished and handpolished several times.
- Barrel made of olive wood, platinum-plated metal parts
- Cartridge/converter system that slides gently out of the barrel on turning the end cap
- big handmade bi-coloured 18-carat gold nib with iridium tip, run in by hand
- Manufacturing process involves over a hundred steps, most of them carried out by hand
