Description: Graf von Faber CastellPen of the Year 2023Ancient EgyptFountain PenLimited Edition Brand New and Never Used Fine Point Nib The Most Collectible The Pen of the Year 2023 is inspired by ancient Egypt, its 3,000-year-old history, its gods and goddesses, its mythology and its achievements. The decorative elements of the Pen of the Year 2023 are testaments to the origins of the Kingdom of Egypt, the pharaohs, their hieroglyphs and symbols. The black colour of the barrel of the Pen of the Year 2023 represents the annual flooding of the earth by the silt of the Nile, which fertilised the ground. Stylised lotus flowers representing rebirth and the engraved hieroglyphs of twelve ancient Egyptian gods and goddesses adorn the metal barrel, which is designed in a matt finish with a highly resistant diamond-like carbon coating. 24-carat-gold-plated metal rings and high-gloss blue painted rings that call to mind the mask of Tutankhamun adorn the grip of the writing instrument. The 18-carat gold nib promises unique writing pleasure. A 24-carat-gold-plated metal plate in the end cap features the engraved Eye of Horus, a symbol of protection in ancient Egypt. The shape of the cap is reminiscent of the headdress of Nefertiti, one of the most important and powerful rulers of ancient Egypt.A reconstructed lapis lazuli with an engraved scarab symbolising the sun as a lucky charm is inlaid in the end piece of the cap. A lot has been passed down to us from ancient Egypt over thousands of years. But we are also presented with mysteries and fascinated by the era to this day. The fact that we have been able to unlock a few secrets is mainly thanks to the hieroglyphs, the artful writing system that enabled ancient Egypt to evolve into an advanced civilisation.The exclusive ancient Egypt edition of the POTY 2023 is limited to 375 fountain pens and 125 rollerball pens.
