Overview

The Pelikan Souverän M400 Black-Red fountain pen gives the model 400’s design heritage a deep red-and-black striped sleeve and gold-plated decoration.

This M400 follows the design lineage of Pelikan’s model 400, introduced in 1950. A red-and-black cellulose acetate sleeve is framed by black resin, with a 24-karat gold-plated beak-shaped clip and rings adding a warm contrast.

Pelikan assembles the pen in Germany and tests each gold nib’s writing performance by hand. The nib is 14-karat gold with rhodium decoration. A built-in piston uses bottled ink, and the cap screws on to close.

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.

Todo bien muy bonita y escribe muy bien pero quizás no ha sido acertado el color de la tinta regalada.

Todo perfecto

Súper atentos y ayuda increíble para todo. Desde elección hasta detalles de envío. Lo único es que dado que los pedidos salen por la tarde, podrían poner una hora límite por la mañana pra que salga el mismo día y así recibirlo al día siguiente. Gracias!!!

Daniel, muchas gracias por su amable comentario y por su preferencia. Con respecto al tiempo de envío, en nuestro sitio web se indica que los pagos con tarjeta tardan 1-2 días laborables en procesarse, por lo que los pedidos no pueden salir el mismo día debido a esta medida de seguridad. Sentimos que esto le haya supuesto un inconveniente y esperamos que a pesar de ello su pluma haya llegado a tiempo y que la esté disfrutando mucho. Quedamos siempre a su disposición para cualquier cosa que pueda necesitar en el futuro.

Pelikan Fountain Pen Souverän M400

Souverän M400 has smoothest NIB ever, writes like a dream straight from the box. Pen unposted would fit small hands perfectly. EF NIB bought is equivalent to Japanese F, close to M in fact.
