Bossert & Erhard Black Stripes Limited Edition Fountain pen

The Bossert & Erhard Black Stripes Limited Edition Fountain Pen is a striking expression of contemporary elegance, inspired by the timeless sophistication of a perfectly tailored pinstripe suit. Limited to just 99 pieces worldwide, this exclusive fountain pen is handcrafted from solid 925 sterling silver and features an intricate pattern of precision-milled stripes filled with deep black lacquer. Combining classic styling with exceptional German craftsmanship, the Black Stripes is a luxury writing instrument that exudes confidence, refinement, and individuality.

Its defining longitudinal stripe pattern is created through multiple meticulous finishing processes, allowing the rich black lacquer to contrast beautifully against the mirror-polished sterling silver. The elegant design is further enhanced by finely engraved triangular and linear patterns on the cap top and cone, adding visual depth and architectural balance. Even the signature spring-loaded clip incorporates the distinctive stripe motif, creating a harmonious design that is sophisticated from every angle.

Inspired by Tailored Elegance

The Black Stripes draws inspiration from the iconic pinstripe suit, a timeless symbol of style, precision, and understated luxury. The combination of polished sterling silver and deep black lacquer creates a bold yet elegant contrast that makes this writing instrument instantly recognizable. Every detail is carefully handcrafted and assembled in Germany, reflecting Bossert & Erhard's century-long tradition of producing exceptional luxury writing instruments.

The solid sterling silver clip can also be engraved, making the Black Stripes a highly personal gift or treasured collector's piece.

Hand-Engraved 18-Carat Gold Nib

At the heart of the Black Stripes is a magnificent 18-carat (750) solid gold nib with a durable iridium tipping point, designed to deliver an exceptionally smooth and expressive writing experience. Each nib is individually hand engraved by a master engraver, with four refined engraving patterns available to give every fountain pen its own distinctive identity. This meticulous craftsmanship ensures that every stroke reflects the same attention to detail found throughout the entire writing instrument.
