Graf von Faber-Castell have long been producing pens of exceptional quality from materials such as exotic woods, resins, and precious metals. The subtle yet elegant design of the Tamitio range applies the same attention to detail and manufacturing quality to simpler materials. The matt powder-coated brass barrels complement the highly-polished steel trim and rhodium-plated nibs. The design is reminiscent of the ever-popular Faber-Castell Ambition range, but with the addition of all-metal barrels with an increased diameter and the characteristic Graf von Faber-Castell internally-sprung pocket clip and trumpet-shaped cap. The top of the cap is inset with a black resin inlay bearing the Graf von Faber-Castell logo, whilst the rear of the cap has the words 'Handmade in Germany' discreetly engraved. The rhodium-plated steel nib is strikingly smooth and available in a choice of nib sizes. Weighs 46g, Measures: 135mm long capped, 117mm long open, 156mm long posted, with 11.3mm barrel diameter. Supplied with a converter for use with bottled ink, and also takes standard pattern ink cartridges. All Graf von Faber-Castell writing instruments are supplied in luxury presentation boxes.
