The company was founded in 1761, and from the mid-19th century developed into the major manufacturer of wood-cased pencils, both graphite and colour.
Inspired by selected writing instruments produced by my ancestors, it was a challenge for the brand to rediscover these products of a past age, and to bring them up to date with timeless design and the use of modern technology. This idea took shape as the Graf von Faber-Castell Collection.
The Guilloche writing instruments made of precious resin are distinguished by a special process. Each one is engraved individually using a method otherwise reserved for jewellery or silver accessories. The barrel is then hand-lacquered and repeatedly polished.The result is a unique and most interesting surface texture. No two writing implements are identical: each is an individual example of the craftsman’s art.
The extraordinary cap inspired with a tamper with engraved “Handmade in Germany” gives the guarantee of the highest quality and complements the whole.
The nib is made of 18k gold with iridic tip in F size.
The fountain pen has a dual filling system, a converter replaceable with ink cartridges in standard size.
