The Pelikan Toledo is a classic piston-filled fountain pen with a hand-engraved barrel. The bi-colour nib is 18ct/750 gold with rhodium accents. Trim and clip are polished gold-plated and the barrel design is polished gold over 925 sterling silver.

A masterful example of hand-crafted design in the time-honoured Toledo tradition.

High-capacity differential plunger filling system is simple and convenient.

The M900 is based on the Souverän M800 pen, being 14.2cm long and 13.1mm diameter. For a smaller-size Toledo, see the M700.

Individually numbered and signed, and presented in a silk-lined wooden gift box.

Pelikan Toledo : Since 1931

Precious artwork in Spanish style.

The art of working with Damascus steel goes back thousands of years. It means that steel or iron objects are decorated by engraving a pattern into the surface. Next, a thin sheet of gold will be placed over the pattern and will be embossed deep into the material with the help of a little hammer. In order to show the newly filled pattern, the object will then be heated to approximately 800°C. By doing so, the steel surfaces will oxidize and turn black, while the gold starts to shine. This technique traveled with the Arabs into Spain and has been perfected throughout the centuries, particularly in the famous Spanish town Toledo.

In the year 1931 Pelikan adopted this technique for the Toledo model with so much success that the design has remained virtually unchanged throughout the years. Today the decorative sleeve is made of one piece in Sterling Silver. It is treated carefully in various different steps until the motive is covered with a layer of gold (or palladium to obtain a silver surface). Every Toledo fountain pen is a unique piece made in Germany. This is because the tiny engravings in the motif are made by hand, making each Pelikan feather come alive. Due to the high amount of work, a maximum of 200 pieces are able to be created per month. The cap and front piece as well as the end piece are made of black high-quality resin.

If you own a Toledo fountain pen, you own a piece of art and a small piece of history.
