This stunning neutral coloured ballpoint pen designed as part of the Guilloche collection by Graf von Faber-Castell has been made with luxury in mind. The barrel has been made from metal which is rhodium-plated with a wave line pattern engraved vertically down it. The pen features a traditional ballpoint nib. The pen doesn’t have a cap to protect the nib because it has a twist mechanism which releases the nib when you want to use it. There is a solid metal spring-loaded clip on the side of the pen which is handy for slipping into your shirt pocket or pen case. The top of the pen has been engraved with the Graf von Faber-Castell brand name around a ring for authenticity. The manufacturing process for the instrument involves over one-hundred steps, which are largely carried out by hand.
