Leather Etui for the Pen of the Year

 
 

The Graf von Faber-Castell leather accessories, with their discreet elegance, are perfectly matched to the pens and pencils in the series. They are a convincing blend of carefully chosen materials, functionalism and craftsmanship.

 

Perfection down to the last detail, and a delight to own. The high-class and practical two-part leather case offers ideal protection for the plunger-action fountain pen of the Pen of the Year edition. Its simple elegance underlines the exclusiveness of this extraordinary writing implement.

 
For the leather case we use selected French calfskin. Tough but supple, strong yet with a certain amount of ‘give’, calfskin is a material that lends itself to fine crafting and is extremely hard-wearing. For outer surfaces we use grained leather, and smooth leather on the inside – a combination with an appealing effect.
 

The leather is butt-jointed and sewn by hand with a specially strong thread. The greatest precision and skill are needed when using a thread of a contrasting colour: every stich shows and each one must be perfect.

 

The leather used for the Collection has been tanned using a specially gentle and environmentally compatible process. One remarkable advantage of this leather is that it does not encourage tarnishing of silver writing implements. Only a few tanneries are able to produce such leather.
