Overview

The Pelikan Souverän M400 Black-Green fountain pen carries forward the green-and-black stripes of Pelikan’s 1950 model 400, with gold-plated details.

The sleeve is cellulose acetate, made from striped material that takes several months to prepare. It is then shaped with a natural diamond tool and framed by black resin components.

The 24-karat gold-plated rings are set into the material with nearly seamless transitions. A matching gold-plated beak-shaped clip completes the decoration. Pelikan assembles the pen in Germany and tests its 14-karat gold nib by hand.

Rhodium decoration gives the gold nib its two-tone appearance. The fountain pen fills with bottled ink through a built-in piston and closes with a screw-on cap.

With a barrel length of 120 mm and a barrel width of 11 mm, it measures 149 mm posted and weighs 11 g without the cap.

Primera compra muy satisfactoria

Después de varios meses admirando las fantásticas fotos de producto de Iguana Sell, me decidí a comprar una pluma pelikan m400 en stock y de momento muy buena experiencia. Toda la información necesaria en la web, envio rápido y preciso, y pluma escribiendo bien, lo que es de agradecer porque el control de calidad de las estilograficas es difícil. Repetiré.

Smooth Moves

The lightness of this fine writing instrument makes writing effortless. With arthritis in my hands, this helps me continue to journal with pen and ink. Choosing smooth paper adds additional ease to the writing experience. This is my first high end nib which makes all the difference in the ease and flow of script. I only regret that I didn't invest in this many many years ago, but hopefully, whoever becomes the lucky next owner will treasure it as much as I do.

Thank you very much for your feedback on your new pen! We're delighted to hear that you are enjoying the overall writing experience, and we appreciate your satisfaction. If you have any further questions or need assistance, please let us know. Thank you for choosing us!

Pelikan M400 F-nib Excellent Pen

Pelikan M400 F-nib Excellent Pen Black and Green. Writing with this pen is smooth and consistent. There is no interruption in the line and changes in the thickness of the line. Depend on the ink, the pen can be more or less watery, but it is the ink not the pen. I also own Pelikan M600 F-nib, which has slightly stiffer nib than M400, but M600 is bigger pen, not for every day prolonged writing. M 400 is ideal size, balanced and light weight pen. I love both pens, Pelikan M400 and M600.
