Writing Instrument
"When I first laid eyes upon the latest in Pelikan's Art Series, I was concerned about the ergonomics of the M600 size (I prefer the larger M800). However, the metal barrel used in the exclusive Aurora guilloche process provides a satisfying weight. The organic black and beige motif is stunning. An extra fine nib completes the package."
Paper
"Mnemosyne's page formatting and micro-perforations make these notebooks more than just functional; they will hold the ink from my new Pelikan's extra-fine nib perfectly."
Ink
"Great flowing Edelstein is Pelikan's premium ink line, and the intriguing green of Adventurine suits any occasion with bold colour and great contrast. Pelikan started in 1838 as an ink manufacturer, so I'd say it is the perfect match for my Pelikan M600!"

"A Pelikan needs a secure nest, and what better than a Pelikan case? The solid leather construction features a gusset that accommodates all sizes of my Pelikans - or any brand, for that matter and the long flap secures it every time."
