Description

The art of working with Damascus steel takes us back thousands of years. In this art, objects made of steel or iron are adorned with the engraving of a design on the surface. Then, a thin sheet of gold is placed over the design and is deeply embossed into the material with the help of a small hammer. To reveal the newly filled pattern, the object is heated to a temperature of approximately 800° C. In this way, the steel surfaces oxidize and turn black, while the gold begins to shine. This technique traveled with the Arabs to Spain and has been perfected over the centuries, particularly in the famous Spanish city of Toledo.

In 1931, Pelikan adopted this technique for the Toledo model, which has remained essentially unchanged over the years. The decorative casing is made from a piece of sterling silver and is carefully treated through various stages until the pattern is covered with a layer of gold. Each Toledo fountain pen is a unique piece crafted in Germany, with the tiny engravings on the pattern being handmade, bringing them to life.

  • Length with cap closed: 14.2 cm
  • Width at the body: 1.35 cm
  • Weight: 40 grams

It operates with a piston mechanism, the clip is shaped like a pelican, and there is a window for checking the ink level. At the top, the company's logo stands out. It comes with an 18-carat gold engraved nib with writing thickness F/M/B (please choose the nib you desire in the comments at the end of your order).
