Pineider Psycho Fountain Pen Yellow Gold (F)
Pineider Psycho Fountain Pen Yellow Gold (F)
Pineider goes back to 1774, with a reputation for making some of the finest paper, leather goods and writing instruments in the world. With new ownership, and a renewed commitment to Italian quality, history and craftsmanship, Pineider also wanted a truly innovative pen range.
One of the most renowned and respected pen designers in the world had just split up with his previous company. Dante Del Vecchio was available, and full of ideas. They got together, and Dante has designed some pens and accessories that are both beautiful and highly practical.
The creative design of the Pineider Psycho is intended to highlight materials and concepts more commonly used in jewellery design. Each pen is hand-made and is made from semi precious metals and is thick and luxurious to hold.
The barrel is beautiful, with a unique triangular patterned design to it. The body and cap are made from sterling silver and plated with Yellow Gold. The black accents complement the pen well.
The clip is shaped like a feather, yet remains practical in use. There's a spring mechanism inside the cap that lets the clip open very wide, so it can hold onto even very thick pockets and bags, while a little upward turn at the tip makes it easy to attach.
When you uncap the pen, the pull cap feels a little different. It's held in place by magnets, making it quick and easy to cap and uncap, while making a good seal.
The 14-carat gold nib is large for the size of the pen, but you can tell why when you start writing with it. The nib has a bit of softness to it, and giving you a bit of line variation with pressure, so your writing has a little more style and expressiveness.
The overall result is a pen that's really been thought through with the attention to detail and innovation that could only come from Dante Del Vecchio.
