is limited to 11 pieces worldwide and will be exclusively available at selected
Porsche Design stores from mid-April 2015.
Porsche Design P'3135 Solid Gold Limited Edition fountain pen |
Pure silhouette
The P'3135 Solid Gold is milled out of a single piece of
solid pure 14-/585 carat gold. The progressive, pure silhouette underlines the
fountain pen’s distinctive shape, and is rounded off by the integral 18-/750
carat gold nib which was specially designed to highlight its elegance. The Porsche Design brand emblem is discreetly engraved on the surface
of the nib and a limited-edition number is lasered on the barrel.
The mechanism is innovatively concealed in the shaft that
is exclusively finished with 14-/585 carat gold coating. When gentle pressure
is applied to the end of the pen and the end piece is unscrewed, the mechanism
can be removed and the converter can be filled with ink.
The presentation box contains a gold-plated
tag showing the number of each fountain pen.
