Graf von Faber-Castell Classic Grenadilla Wood / Platinum Plated Mechanical Pencil

The fountain pens, rollerball pens, propelling pencils and ball pens in the Graf von Faber-Castell collection are designed as matching sets and are available in several variants. All four are available in reddish brown Pernambuco wood, matt black ebony, dark brown grenadilla wood or in a platinum-plated version.

All three precious woods, i.e. Pernambuco which is normally used for violin bows, the very dark ebony as well as the granadilla wood are extremely hard and durable, and correspondingly difficult to work. The natural variations in grain and colouring mean that every writing implement made from them is unique.

The platinized fountain pen, rollerball pen, propelling pencil and ball pen are available with a purely platinized surface or a combination of platinized and wood. The effect is somewhat cooler than the silver plated finish. Platinum is even more valuable than gold; it has a very hard and resistant surface that does not oxidize.

• The propelling pencil uses break-resistant 0.7mm leads of hardness B with a reservoir for spare leads, and under the removable cap is a replacement white eraser.
