The gleaming polish of the precious resin barrel catches the eye immediately. The deep black radiates an intensity that gives these writing implements their unusual aura. This is accentuated in a most effective way by the platinum-plated ring at the end of the cap or front piece, discreetly engraved with the words "handmade in Germany". The barrel is elegantly shaped in a single piece: no screw thread interrupts its puristic form that ensures, in a masterly way, the highest degree of functionalism. One can tell intuitively from the gently concave grip that it will sit comfortably between the fingers.
The propelling pencil uses break resistant 0.7 mm leads of hardness B and has a reservoir for spare leads. There is a replaceable white eraser under the end cap.
