Tortoiseshell-Brown
M101N

In 1937, Pelikan launched the first M101N with a global campaign and much success. From the six models in the series which became available throughout the years, the version in tortoiseshell brown is one of the most sought-after vintage pens. At the time, it was only sold outside Germany. As the shape and coloring still appeals to many collectors and lovers of vintage products today, Pelikan now introduces a Special Edition that takes up the main characteristics of the M101N tortoiseshell brown.

The tortoiseshell sleeve and cap that used to be of celluloid is now made of cellulose acetate. The nib is still 14 carat gold, and the size is smaller than today‘s fountain pens, just like it was back in 1937. The dark brown pieces are made of high-quality resin, and the clip as well as the rings are 24 carat gold-plated.

Lizard
M101N

The M101N Lizard is based on a historical model that dates back to 1937. While it keeps the traditional shape that is so essential for a Pelikan fountain pen, it has been adapted to today‘s modern standard of fountain pen manufacturing.

The patterned barrel and the cap of this fountain pen are made of cellulose acetate with a completely smooth surface. High quality resin was used for the black pieces, and the Pelikan logo is engraved in the traditional manner at the top of the cap. The precious metal palladium covers the clip and rings, and the 14 carat gold nib was completely rhodinized to obtain a corresponding silver effect. For this Special Edition, the packaging was adapted so that it fits to the lizard design on the fountain pen. This much awaited fountain pen was available in a limited quantity starting December 2012, just in time for Pelikan‘s 175th anniversary in 2013.

2014

Tortoiseshell Red
M101N

Following the successful models M101N tortoiseshell brown and M101N lizard, Pelikan launches the third variation in the historical series: The M101N tortoiseshell red. This model comes with an attractive gift box & one bottle of 4001 royal blue ink. Both feature a special historic motif, which makes the set a beautiful gift for every lover of the Pelikan brand.

The barrel is made of the typical Pelikan cellulose acetate in a very unique pattern. Connoisseurs know that the production of this decorative core of the fountain pen is extremely work-intensive. The dark-red parts are made of high-quality resin that polishes itself time and again during use. You can choose the 14 carat gold nib in four sizes: EF, F, M, and B.

Bright Red
M101N

Intense luminosity – unique presence.

With the special edition M101N Bright Red, Pelikan presents a small new masterpiece of elegance. It is the sensual continuance of the successful models M101N Tortoiseshell Brown, M101N Lizard and M101N Tortoiseshell Red, which hold a special place in the historical model range. Bright Red is a real collector’s item, and not only for those already familiar with Pelikan.

The vibrant red barrel and cap sleeve are made from high quality acrylic with a distinctive marbled pattern. The quality synthetic resin of the cap head and the filling handle polishes itself as it is used – meaning that Bright Red always continues to shine. The elegant marbling is in perfect harmony with the 24 carat gold plated fittings. There are four variations of the 14-carat gold nib available: EF, F, M and B.

This set with a gift case and a glass bottle of ink 4001 in a historical design was only available for a limited time.
