It is a hand crafted and hand engraved pen which derives from the Spanish town of Toledo from where it’s design was influenced.
The barrel is made of solid 925 sterling silver plated with 24 karat gold and the Toledo is based on the incredibly popular and successful Souveran range.
It features a high capacity differential pluger ink refilling system and comes in a wood lined presentation box.
