The manufacturing process over this intricate Graf von Faber-Castell Guilloche India red fountain pen involves over a hundred steps, most of them carried out by hand! The Guilloche writing instruments made of precious resin are distinguished by a special process. Each one is engraved individually using a method otherwise reserved for jewellery or silver accessories. The barrel is then hand-lacquered and repeatedly polished and the result is a unique and most interesting surface texture. No two writing implements are identical: each is an individual example of the craftsmans art.
