Waterman Carène Marine Amber GT Fountain Pen

Waterman Carène Marine Amber GT fountain pen

A lacquer coating in brown and black tones that emulates the look of amber on its body and cap and various ornamental details in 23K gold-plated metal are the materials, elements and colors that shape the Waterman Carène Marine Amber GT fountain pen, an elegant high-end writing instrument that is part of the Carène product line from the French company of American origin Waterman and a spectacular example of the artisanal skill of the workers of this brand and the enormous quality of the articles manufactured and assembled by them in their French plant.

The Carène line is one of Waterman's most luxurious collections and an aesthetic marvel defined by its original design, inspired by the hydrodynamic shapes of boats and characterized by its sharp, streamlined forms. Beyond their distinctive shapes, meticulous workmanship, and the rich materials of their various models, if anything distinguishes the fountain pens in the Carène collection, it is the unusual morphology of their nibs. Unlike most pens, they are embedded in the grip section, blending their silhouette with that of the latter.

Among the various decorative elements that enliven the surface of Carène fountain pens, the most notable are their clip, equipped with the characteristic central groove of Waterman pins, the ring located where the grip section meets the barrel, its strong culotte and the fine ornamental band located at the bottom of the cap, which has the brand name engraved around its circumference.

As already mentioned, the nib of this model is embedded into the grip section and is crafted from solid 18K gold. It is supplied with ink via a cartridge or converter system and features a simple engraved decoration consisting of the Waterman logo, formed by a double-v inscribed in a hexagon, and the inescapable reference to the purity of the gold used in its manufacture. This exceptional component is available in a limited range of nib thicknesses, covering fine (F) and medium (M).

The Carène pens are presented in a magnificent premium dark blue gift box.
