Waterman Edson Sterling Silver Limited Edition Fountain Pen
Up for auction is a magnificent, highly sought-after Waterman Edson Sterling Silver Limited Edition fountain pen, complete with its original luxury presentation box, cardboard outerbox and cardboard outersleeve. Combining avant-garde French engineering with precious silversmithing, the Edson Sterling Silver remains one of the absolute highlights of modern fountain pen design.

About the Model & Pedigree
The Edson Legacy: Named after Lewis Edson Waterman—who patented the first reliable fountain pen in 1884—the Edson is widely revered by pen enthusiasts as a masterpiece of design. Beyond its iconic futuristic profile, it features a unique internal feed system engineered to prevent ink leakage, even under dramatic atmospheric pressure shifts during high-altitude flight.

The Sterling Silver Limited Edition: Released in the mid-2000s as an exclusive numbered run, this edition elevates the classic Edson silhouette. The barrel and cap are crafted with a solid sterling silver overlay finished in a protective palladium coating with deep, chiseled geometric guilloché patterns, contrasted against a deep, translucent sapphire blue resin section.

Item Condition & Provenance
