AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The Pelikan D400 Tortoise is a refined mechanical pencil from the Souverän 400 series, combining Pelikan’s classic proportions with the richly patterned brown tortoiseshell finish. Its translucent striped barrel displays layered shades of amber, brown and gold, complemented by dark brown resin details and gold-plated trim. The slender profile and finely balanced proportions give the pencil an elegant, understated presence, while the precise push-button mechanism advances 0.5 mm lead for accurate writing and drawing. With its distinctive tortoiseshell material and traditional Pelikan detailing, the D400 is an especially appealing vintage mechanical pencil in its own right.
The pen is in excellent, pre-owned condition and has been carefully cleaned. Imperfection: light scratches.
