Classic silver plated pen from Germany - Waldmann

The timeless story of Waldmann began in 1918 in Pforzheim, the traditional German jewellery metropolis in the Black Forest, as a manufacturing plant for high-class push-action and twist-action pencils made of gold and silver. Waldmann then developed and produced fountain pens and ballpoint pens made from metals such as brass, silver, or 18-carat gold! Waldmann writing instruments with special rotary mechanisms for 2 and 4 colour pen systems obtained worldwide patents. This master craftsman was first honoured at the World Exhibition in Paris in 1937, namely with a silver medal for the four-colour action pencil. Further patents were successful, including the legendary "Two-in-One" in 1972. This push-action pen included an ink cartridge in the barrel, while the other end of the pen could be used as a fountain pen.

Everything that leaves the company's own production is crafted by skilled artisans with many years of experience using traditional craftsmanship techniques, who perform the manual work with great care and love. Enthusiasm for innovation, modern techniques, and filigree craftsmanship is a long-standing tradition. Just as in the founding year, Waldmann still produces 100% of its writing accessories in Germany today, which is why products from the Waldmann factory rightly bear the signature "Made in Germany".

Waldmann has also made a name for itself as a specialist in unusual finishes for writing accessories. The old craft of engraving deserves special mention. Only a few master engravers still master the "Viennese pattern", and only Waldmann is able to produce unique writing instruments with this unique and elegant engraving method, done individually. Tradition, quality, and craftsmanship since 1918 - Waldmann has combined them all in its writing instruments.

925 silver is therefore a precious metal alloy consisting of 92.5% silver and 7.5% other materials. It is a harder and more stable alloy, making it ideal for the production of jewellery and coins, but also for the production of high-quality writing products such as Waldmann. This play on words and meaning led in 2010 to a collaboration between Süddeutsche Zeitung, one of the most renowned German daily newspapers, and the producer of elegant writing articles, Waldmann. The coveted "Edelfeder" series, which has been an essential part of the Waldmann collection since 2011, was also created and designed in honour of outstanding journalistic achievements in "Edelfeder".
