Product Information
Product Description
Guilloches - ornamental patterns of fine, engraved lines - originally adorned precious watches and accessories such as the legendary Fabergé eggs. Graf von Faber-Castell uses this traditional jewelling technique to transform the writing instruments in the Guilloche series into true pieces of jewellery: The precious resin barrel is given a filigree pattern line by line and then further refined in manual lacquering and polishing processes. The Guilloche models are available in many expressive colour variations, as well as in a rhodium-plated finish.

The Art of Texture.
Materials
The Guilloche Series from Graf von Faber-Castell stands out for its precious resin barrels featuring an intricately engraved Guilloche pattern. Manual polishing and lacquering processes create its unique luster. The metal components are either high-quality rhodium-plated or coated with high-gloss rose gold.
Design
The design of the writing instruments in this series is very similar to the Classic series. However, they do not have a screw cap but a pressure cap. The engraved guilloche pattern creates a fascinating, fine structure that gives the play of light a special depth and vibrancy.
