Pen 1 Design 04 made by Otto Hutt   

Pen 2 Design 07 in Sterling silver made by Otto Hutt

Pen 3 Design 06,made by Otto Hutt, a limited edition for the commemoration of the 250th anniversary of the German "Goldtown Pforzheim". I was told that most of the 250 pens went to Saudi Arabia. You can guess what happens there if they even throw away Ferraris, Lamborghinis etc - which are a tiny bit more expensive than this pen. So, let's assume that this is one of the very few survivors. Not inked. I already wrote about it: LINK. Meanwhile, I also have the ball-pen. Very rare set!

Pen 4 is a Waterman Gentleman in the Godron design: SOLD

Pen 5 is a Parker 75 in the Godron design: SOLD

Pen 6 Wahl: SOLD

Pen 7 Leonardo LE with Endless Pens "Devil's Kiss": SOLD

Pen 8-10 Caran d'Ache, model Geneve: SOLD

Pen 8: 5th anniversary commemoration pen of the model Geneve, existed also as the version in gold, it has an accompanying ball-pen : SOLD

Pen 9: black: SOLD

Pen 10, first LE of CdA for the 90th? anniversary in 1994: SOLD

Pen 11: Waldmann Tuscany Sterling silver barley; it will get a Jowo gold nib and I most probably plan to keep it

Pen 12: Graf-von-Faber Castell Classic Collection, a rarer pen which is silver coated, the more usual ones are Platinum coated: SOLD

Slimming down

Update: I started selling - see my sales pages : In order to sell most of my pens, I first had to made up my mind what I want to keep. May I present here my target collection, the ones to keep. It is a page in progress, there are still many holes in the data. Waldmann Pens Counting from the left, pen 1-4, 7-10 are the same model: the model Precieux (Deep Wide) Lines in Sterling silver. Pen 8-10 are the original model (fountain pen, mechanical pencil and ball-pen). Pen 1-4 are the yellow-gold vermeil version of it (mechanical pencil, rollerball, ball-pen and fountain pen) and pen 7 is the rose-gold vermeil version of the fountain pen. The rose-gold fountain pen has a rose-gold-plated 18k nib. Pen 6 is the same model in steel, coated in black (Waldmann P2000). But it is not a typical steel, it is  a recycled steel from gun barrels recycled by the German police. It is a limited edition, meanwhile sold out. Read more about it here . Unfortunately, the silver model is meanwhile also ou

My rotation pens rested in several boxes here and there on my book shelves. I always wanted them to be together in one box. So, I bought one at Yahoo Auctions. It is a wooden box lacquered with urushi, unused, stored hidden for many years in some drawers.  Nice, isn't it. It is an old storage box for writing tools and paper.

It is quite thick and, additionally, the backside is coated with gold. (This gold and silver is certainly made from aluminium.) I folded the paper that the valley is 15mm broad and the crests are 5mm high. The backside then looks like this. Some adhesive into the crests.  A little bit of persuasion with some clip
