(Cleveland, OH)  One of the nicest experiences in life is spontaneously to do the right thing when faced with a decisive situation. The new Intuition pens and pencils by Faber-Castell provide the opportunity to experience that in its purest form.

Polished to a high gloss the deep black of the barrel and cap radiates an intensity that provides these writing implements with their unusual aura. This is accentuated by the gleaming platinum-plated ring at the end of the cap, discreetly engraved with the words “Hand-made in Germany”. The barrel is elegantly shaped in a single piece that emphasizes its puristic lines and ensures a high degree of functionalism.  The style is unmistakable - the trumpet shape, the ribbed end cap, and the spring-loaded clip are all familiar features to those who appreciate the fine art of writing by hand and the Graf von Faber-Castell brand name.

The new Intuition series is available as a fountain pen, twist-action ballpoint pen, roller-ball pen, and propelling pencil. The barrel and cap are made of an intense black superior synthetic material, while the metal parts are platinum-plated. The fountain pen is equipped with an 18-carat bicolour gold nib; the nib module and practical cartridge/converter system extend when the end of the barrel is twisted, so that the pen can be refilled or the nib changed. The roller-ball pen possesses a precision tip that glides smoothly over the paper and a large-capacity refill that lasts a long time.  There is a replaceable eraser under the end cap of the pencil. Each Intuition writing implement comes in a stylish gift box.
