FABER CASTELL FOUNTAIN PENS - CASTELLO 7 & CASTELL 16
파버카스텔 카스텔로 7 & 카스텔 16 만년필
I already posted about Castello red color and Castello gold in the past.
These are Castello 7 and Castell 16 fountain pens.
These series have various numberings, although I have no idea how the numbering system works.
They are contained in a small orange color paper box.
The fountain pen design is drawn at the side, and its model number and color is indicated at another side.
We can also see Faber Castell's old logo the company used from the early 1950s to mid 1990s.
Castell 16 fountain pen black color.
The cap is made of metal, while the body is plastic.
Castell 16 is engraved on the cap.
A.W. FABER-CASTELL, GERMANY.
Faber Castell indicated both names in parallel for some times.
It is the transition period from the older name to the newer name.
There is a gold sticker at the center.
Does it mean Castell 16 with nib size M?
The nib is barely seen.
It has gold color, but I'm not sure it is 14K gold nib since I can't see that.
This is Castello 7 with blue color.
While Castell 16 has relatively slim, streamlined body, this Castello 7 has rather thick and oval shaped body.
Both the cap and the barrel are blue color, and I prefer this color than the Castell 16 color.
Faber Castell name is engraved at the end of the cap.
Now, the silver sticker says 8 M.
Doesn't it have the number 7?
What was it meant to be?
The only other thing that comes to my mind is the price like this case.
The nib is silver color, but it's the same that it is hardly seen.
The instruction manual is common for Castello 7, Castell 10, and Castell 16.
Maybe I need to collect Castell 10 for this instruction manual someday.
