FOUNTAIN PEN OF THE YEAR 2017
Admired as daring masters of wind and wave, feared as ruthless invaders and valued as merchants, the Vikings set up a trading network that span across continents. The revolutionary construction of the Viking longboats, the mystic force of the runes and the curly birch as one of the characteristic trees of the Nordic world inspired us in designing the Pen of the Year 2017. Both editions come with an 18-carat gold nib that is run in by hand. An end-cap protects the rotary knob of the plunger mechanism of the plunger-type fountain pen.

The name Graf von Faber-Castell is engraved on the end piece in runes
Individually numbered writing instruments

PLATINUM-PLATED, CURLY BIRCH
With great precision, five slivers of 'curly' birch are inserted in the platinum-plated frames of the fountain pen and rollerball pen. A special process has made it possible to cut such thin pieces from this wood, which is very delicate on account of its attractive patterning. That takes a degree of skill otherwise found only in the cutting and polishing of gemstones. The warm color of the wood, full of nuances, harmonizes wonderfully with the carnelian that is let into the cap and glows an intense red. The name Graf von Faber-Castell is engraved on the end piece in runes.

PLATINUM PLATED, BIRCH GRAIN
With great precision, five strips of grain birch are inserted into the platinum-plated frames of the fountain pen and rollerball. A special process has made it possible to cut and carve delicate pieces from this attractively grained wood. Such a degree of skill is found only in the handling of precious stones. The warm chromatic tone and nuances of the wood harmonize excellently with the intense and bright reddish tones of the carniola, which has been inserted in the cap.
