Pelikan Limited Edition Souveran M1000 Raden Black Infinity Fountain Pen

Pelikan Limited Edition Souverän M1000 Raden Black Infinity Fountain Pen

The limited edition M1000 Raden Black Infinity is an absolute breathtaking masterpiece of Japanese artistry. The master artist has created an outstanding piece of art using the traditional Raden technique. For the M1000 Raden Black Infinity, sections of shells selected from the colorful abalone green colored mother of pearl shell were smoothed and cut into rectangular shapes by hand.

The first step is to paint the surface of the fountain pen in black by using urushi lacquer. In the next step, the stripes are fixed to the cap and barrel by a coating of lacquer. Several coats of paint are applied, and each of them must dry and harden completely before the next coating is applied. Between the finishing steps, the lacquered surface of the fountain pen is polished repeatedly. A subtle silver sparkle can be seen on the black urushi lacquer. This effect is achieved by sprinkling fine sterling-silver powder. Finally, the master artist individually signs and numbers each fountain pen by using the Maki-e technique.

The M1000 Raden Black Infinity fountain pen is a piece of art with a finely chased 18-carat gold nib in the size M with a rhodium decor. Each fountain pen is equipped with a piston mechanism and is offered in a traditional Japanese gift box which is made of Paulownia wood.

This unique Limited Edition will be available in October 2024 in a limited edition of only 400 pieces worldwide.
