|  The fountain pens, roller-ball pens, propelling 
                pencils and ball pens in the Graf von Faber-Castell Classic 
                Collection are designed as matchings sets and available in several 
                variants.
 All four are available in reddish brown Pernambuco wood, 
        matt black ebony, dark brown grenadilla wood or in a platinum-plated 
        version.  All three precious woods, i.e. Pernambuco which is normally 
        used for violin bows, the very dark ebony as well as the grenadilla 
        wood are extremely hard and durable, and correspendingly difficult 
        to work.  The natural variations in grain and colouring mean that 
        every writing implement made from them is 
        unique. |
