This 2019 limited edition from Pineider is the result of a forging between two Italian companies known for excellence in manufacturing quality luxury goods. Pineider of Florence partnered with Carbon Dream to produce the carbon fiber and resin blend used in the body and cap of the "Forged Carbon" fountain pen. Carbon Dream's materials can be found on Ferrari Formula 1, Bugatti, and Ducati products.
As opposed to woven carbon fiber, forged carbon uses high heat and pressure to fuse the casually-placed fibers within resin for a stronger bond that doesn't require the overlay of multiple fiber layers. The result is a pattern unique to each writing instrument. The 14kt gold "quill" nib provides a writing experience that gently yields to the hand of its user. The unique nib design and gold content provide line variation with each thoughtful stroke.
The Pineider Mystery Filler mechanism operates like a piston-fill fountain pen. Instead of having the blind cap accessible or mistakenly operated by posting the cap, the Mystery Filler hides piston knob with a spring-loaded retraction. The Forged Carbon cap fixes on the front end of the pen with a magnetic twist-lock. The symbolic goose quill clip is fashioned from marine steel and matches beautifully with the sculpted relief cap band.
