Graf Von Faber-CastellĀ Fountain PenĀ Intuition Platino Fluted Ivory
It is particularly satisfying to be able to feel the quality of an object. The pure black color, polished to a high gloss, conveys a deep intensity. The finely fluted barrel is made of a single piece of material so that no screw joint interrupts the elegant and pure shape. Intuition āIvoryā offers a colored alternative to the pure black.
The combination of the ivory-colored barrel with a black, precious resin cap polished to a gleaming finish elegantly rounds off the series. The words āhand made in Germanyā are engraved in the platinum-plated ring that decorates the open end of the cap.
The style is unmistakable: the trumpet shape, the fine fluting and the spring-loaded clip are familiar features to all who appreciate the fine art of writing by Graf von Faber-Castell.
