Matte Steel Lamy 2000 Fountain Pen
Unsuprisingly an exemplary specimen of Bauhaus design, and Lamy's most iconic pen, can be found in the Lamy 2000. Launched in 1966, the pen was designed by Gerd A. MĂŒller, who was working at the time for Braun, alongside Dieter Rams. Parallels between his razor design for Braun, the Sixtant SM3 and the Lamy 2000 are obvious - as much in the proportions and curved lines as in its use of brushed metal and black plastic, coexisting side by side. As far as taste goes, you are in safe territory with the Lamy 2000, a staple of the designer and architect kit. This brushed metal finish variation on the classic black Makrolon model, is a weightier writing implement and suitable for those looking for something more substantial in hand, or for those wanting a bit more âblingâ. âElegantâ is probably a more suited adjective to describe it, as indeed this pencil is flawless aesthetically and should attract the jealousy of all your colleagues and friends - which is surely what having nice pens is all about ! We wholly recommend this pen which makes a great coming-of-age gift on occasions such as graduations, 21st birthdays, weddings. It can truly be considered one of the great pens ever produced - an essential addition to anybody interested in collecting pens, or design for that matter.
