With its minimalist design, the Intuition Platino Wood stands out from the crowd. No threaded joint interrupts the pure design of the Intuition Platino Ebony and Grenadilla. The gently sweeping concave contours of the grip are evidence not only of the most careful workmanship, but also offer maximum comfort when writing.

The warmth of the exotic woods is accentuated by the platinum-plated metal cap that completes the fountain pen. The cap is decorated with the Graf von Faber-Castell coat of arms. Due, not least, to the extra-large 18-carat bicolour gold nib, which is available in seven different widths, the Intuition Platino with its exotic wood barrel is a genuine collector's item of refined writing culture.

The style of the Intuition Platino Wood collection combines the natural and warm charisma of wood with the cool elegance of platinum-plated surfaces in a unique way. All the more remarkably is thus the finely fluted barrel as it is elegantly shaped from a single piece. Thanks to the gently concave grip it sits comfortably between the fingers. The metal cap is graced by a metal inlay bearing the family coat of arms.

• Barrel is made of a single piece of material so that no screw joint interrupts the pure shape
• Cartridge/converter system that slides gently out of the barrel on turning the end cap
• Magnum sized handmade bicoloured 18-carat gold nib with iridium tip, run in by hand
• Manufacturing process involves over a hundred steps, most of them carried out by hand.

Grenadilla, finely fluted
Certified precious woods, like the dark brown granadilla, grow very slowly, which makes them particularly hard and durable, and correspondingly difficult to work.
