The Heritage Limited Edition fountain pens pay tribute to Countess Ottilie and Count Alexander von Faber-Castell, who renovated and extended the Faber-Castell Castle during the early 20th century. The impressive designs of the Count's study, and the Countess's boudoir, along with the couple's discerning personalities, inspired the creation of two luxurious pens.
The Alexander Fountain Pen exudes classical elegance with a hint of nostalgia, with a hexagonal barrel of green-lacquered brass finely engraved with a guilloche pattern. The cap is 925 sterling silver with a solid, spring-loaded clip and screw closure. The hand-engraved nib is made of 18K bicolour gold. The end of the fluted cap is embellished with the double knurling characteristic of Graf von Faber-Castell writing instruments in sterling silver. Engraved on the end of the cap are the initials A, O, F and C - Alexander, Ottilie, Faber and Castell. The cap ring is inscribed 'Handmade in Germany' and 'Limited Edition Heritage' is engraved on the end piece along with the number produced - 1898 - a reference to the year that Ottilie and Alexander were married.
Available in fine, medium and broad nib sizes. Takes international standard cartridges, or fit a converter for use with bottled fountain pen ink.
Dimensions: 137mm long, weighs approximately 58g.
Supplied in an luxury presentation box with a descriptive brochure.
