Overview

The Graf von Faber-Castell Classic Macassar Black Edition fountain pen unites fluted wood, dark PVD details, and a gold nib finished with ruthenium.

Fine longitudinal grooves follow the Macassar wood barrel, with its natural grain visible against dark PVD-finished metal details. An 18k gold nib with ruthenium plating extends the Black Edition's dark palette to the writing end.

Handmade in Germany, the fountain pen accepts cartridges or bottled ink with the included converter. It has a screw-on cap and a solid metal clip, and comes in a solid wood presentation box in brown or dark brown.

Superb !!

The GvFC is a very underrated fountain pen. It is however one of the best German pens in my opinion. The medium nib writes a bit broad but it is a smooth and wet writer

The design is very unique- unlike any other fountain pen and the fit, finish and overall look is first class !!

Fast shipping by IGS !!!

Excellent service

La qualité de service d’Iguanasell est absolument parfaite. Ils ont rapidement répondu à ma demande concernant le changement d’adresse en cours de commande. Quand au plume Macassar Black Edition… il s’agit de ma première plume dont le corps est en bois et je dois avouer que l’écriture est extrêmement plaisante. En outre, en taille F, la plume du Macassar est à la fois fine sur papier épais et plus épaisse sur papier fin, avec un léger aspect biseauté si l’on s’amuse à jouer les pleins et déliés, sans que cela ne devienne trop calligraphique. Bel objet

Great pen but a bit on the thinner side

Love the look and the quality of the pen, writes well and the nib has quite a lot of feedback. The grip section is a bit too slim for my personal taste. Great pen overall
