Guilloches - ornamental patterns of fine, engraved lines - originally adorned precious watches and accessories such as the legendary Fabergé eggs. Graf von Faber-Castell uses this traditional jeweler's technique to transform the writing instruments in the Guilloche series into true pieces of jewelery.
The precious resin barrel is given a filigree pattern line by line and then further refined in manual lacquering and polishing processes to create the textured Black Edition finish. The Guilloche models are adorned with the distinctive GvFC fluted cap, curved, spring-loaded clip and metal front sections, all enriched in a gleaming, titanium-plated finish.
The Guilloche Black Edition fountain pen has a handmade 18K gold nib coated in precious ruthenium and filled using ink cartridges or converter. The Guilloche series is also available in matching capped rollerball, twist ballpoint pen and mechanical pencil models. All are presented in a fine Faber-Castell gift box.
