Grenadilla, or African Blackwood, is one of the best materials for woodwind instruments such as the clarinet. Native to Tanzania and Mozambique, it takes almost a century to mature, which is why music companies have been working with conservation organizations to create sustainable systems.
Only a specific part of the African Blackwood is used to make instruments, and to reduce waste, other parts are given a new purpose, which includes the barrel of the Graf von Faber-Castell Classic Grenadilla fountain pen. This cartridge-converter pen features platinum-plated metal parts, a spring-loaded clip, and a bi-color, 18-karat gold nib with an iridium tip.
We have for sale a brand-new Graf von Faber-Castell Classic Grenadilla fountain pen with an F nib. It comes complete with its box, papers, and other inclusions.
