Bentley’s ongoing partnership with renowned pen and pencil maker Graf von Faber-Castell continues with a new collection of pens, including a Fountain Pen, Ballpoint Pen and Rollerball Pen.
Graf von Faber-Castell for Bentley
A passion for unrivalled craftsmanship and unmistakable design unites British luxury car brand Bentley and fine writing instrument manufacturer Graf von Faber-Castell. A collaboration between the two brands, this new collection of writing instruments combines Bentley’s legendary spirit with the elegance of Graf von Faber-Castell for a writing experience beyond compare.
The new collection includes a Fountain Pen with a gold nib, a Ballpoint Pen and a Rollerball Pen, each with an exquisite ebony barrel – one of the most opulent and hardest precious woods in the world. The metalwork of each pen is platinum-plated. The magnum-sized gold nib of the fountain pen is crafted in a combination of 18-carat gold and iridium to create a tip that delivers a smooth and precise writing experience and is what makes the pen so special. The natural distinctions in the lightly textured black wood of the ebony barrels help to illustrate the individual character of each pen, ensuring that it becomes intimately familiar to individual owners.
Each pen is finished with inimitable Bentley design elements. Each cap in the series is adorned with the iconic Bentley ‘B’, surrounded by filigree knurling. The distinctive Bentley diamond pattern decorates the platinum-plated front and end-piece of the pens in the form of elaborately milled rings.
