Xezo Maestro™ Black MOP Tungsten F

The Xezo Maestro™ Tungsten Metallic and Black Mother of Pearl series of handcrafted fountain pens were produced in a limited edition and individually numbered.

The design concept involved combining elements of the Art Nouveau style, such as the wave-like curved clip, with a high-tech tungsten metallic finish and the beauty of natural black mother of pearl.

The lower barrel is made with long panels of natural Tahitian black mother of pearl and is adorned with a hand-etched 18-karat gold plated Greek key. The production of the lower barrel is an art in itself. In order to produce the silky smooth finish and highlight the richness of the black mother of pearl, the barrels were manually polished in several stages. This process takes around 2 weeks to complete in order to bring out the unique colors of the material.

Fittings are made of solid brass with 18-karat gold plating and are hallmarked. The German-made medium size nib is fitted with an iridium point. The body and cap of the pen are produced from solid brass and painted with a tungsten metallic color. Multiple layers of clear lacquer are applied on top of the finish for added protection and glossiness.

The end result of these elaborate efforts is an object of art polished to perfection and adorned with glowing, iridescent black natural mother of pearl, a tungsten metallic finish, and 18-karat gold accents.

No two pens are exactly alike. The panels of black mother of pearl range from black to light gray, along with red or blue or green overtones. The black mother of pearl is a natural material; therefore, some distinctions in the texture of this material may occur. These distinctions and variations in texture are not defects, but rather natural attributes which add beauty and uniqueness to each of these pens.
