New Classics range from Graf von Faber-Castell
The beautiful Anello with platinised rings
From the first glance the precious writing implements from the new Graf von Faber-Castell Anello Classic Collection inspires the would be writer. Fountain pens, roller-ball pens, propelling ballpoint pens and propelling pencils all have ebony barrels into which filigree platinised rings have been incorporated. They dominate the purist look of the writing implements and lend the collection its name – ‘Anello’ (Italian for ‘ring’). What forms a refined contrast visually proves to be a perfect tactile combination: the transitions between the ebony segments and the delicate precious metal rings are barely perceptible. Lying optimally in the hand, the writing instruments have pleasant even surfaces which give the impression the barrels are made out of one single piece. The Anello quartet presents itself as a stylish eye-catcher on the desk and a luxurious accessory on business trips. With its androgynous elegance, the collection makes a special gift which is sure to delight men and women alike. All four exclusive writing implements in the new collection also of course meet the highest functional demands, as do all creations from Graf von Faber-Castell.
Creative, bold and Stylish
The new Anello collection is available as a fountain pen with a bicoloured 18-carat gold nib in six nib widths and practical cartridge/converter system and as a propelling ball pen, roller-ball pen and propelling pencil with replaceable rubber under the cap. The cap, end piece and spring-loaded clip each have a high-gloss platinum-plated surface. The roller-ball pen plays an omnipresent role in daily life and, thanks to its practical attributes, is always ready for use, just as is the propelling ballpoint pen which serves as a constant companion for taking quick notes. The propelling pencil also has this prêt-à-porter quality and is always ready for recording every inspiration – or perhaps for immortalising an imaginative church spire in one’s personal notebook during a trip to Italy.
