Faber Castell teamed up with Bentley for exclusive special collection of luxury writing instruments accessories that perfectly combine timeless design, passion for precision and superb craftsmanship. Called “Graf von Faber-Castell for Bentley” collection boasts three ranges of writing instruments and matching accessories. All products were jointly designed, developed and launched by Graf von Faber-Castell in close partnership with the Bentley team. This project is an exciting new experience for the German luxury brand, as it is the first time that Graf von Faber-Castell is working together with UK partners.

The fountain pens, rollerball pens and ballpoint pens share many of the exquisite design aspects found in the world of motors: For example, the pen cap was finished with the typical knurling found in cars and the distinctive Bentley “B”, and the characteristic diamond pattern can be found as a fine guilloche on the barrel. The front and corner pieces are polished to a gleam, and are reminiscent of the striking, chromed elements of a luxury car.

The colours of the writing instruments also meet the exclusive Bentley colours: instead of classic racing colours like “Racing Green”, more modern, subtle shades were chosen – such as dazzling “Sequin Blue”, anthracite “Tungsten” and shimmering “White Satin”.
At the same time, the typical design elements of the Graf von Faber-Castell Collection are also recognisable: the solid sprung clip, platinum-plated surfaces and straightforward, understated design – a wonderful combination of elegance and pace, perfectly topped off by a case made of fine Italian calfskin, hand-sewn like the interior of a luxury car.
