Condition and information:

The Silvexa line together with the rolled gold lines were the high-end flagship pens of all M, MK, and P series Pelikan pens, which were launched in the early '60s as new modern, space era-inspired pens. The Silvexa pens are renowned for their reliability and build quality.
Pens here are crafted in black resin bodies, and the cap and upper bodies in silver-plated stainless steel; both materials are very high quality and give great protection and appeal to the writing instruments.
The inlay of the logo of the Pelikan company stands proudly located on the top of each pen.

The fountain pen is a rare P21 model which on the exterior is similar to the P15 and P20 models. It is fitted with an HF 14K gold nib, the white gold of the nib fits the whole two-toned theme of the set perfectly. These nibs can be used on any paper where nib endurance is needed. Even though 14K nibs tend to be more flexible, in "H" nibs this is not the case. The nib is meant to flex, but the tines do not come apart, so the pen will always write a thin and constant line even when pressed.
The pen features a transparent ink window in a beautiful blue color. Through the transparent ink window, the user can always see when their ink is running low.
The ballpoint pen uses slim ballpoint metal refills and although the one in the pen is depleted it can be used for future purchase reference.
The mechanical pencil uses 1,8mm leads which are strong and durable ideal for all your drafting and drawing practices. The pencil comes with several leads included, ready to be used.
Both the ballpoint pen and the mechanical pencil use a push upper body mechanism with a precise refill deployment, very heavy pens with a great feel in the hand. The same goes for the fountain pen, especially when the cap is posted, since it's heavy it makes the pen very easy to write with, with a great balance and feel.
High-quality pens, great appeal, one of the best everyday reliable Pelikan pens.

The pens are in mint condition, with some visible signs of use, and come in their original presentation box.
