LAMY Safari Fountain Pen - Meteora - Special Edition

The Safari is a design classic that is both functional and fun. Originally intended for school children, it had to be both tough and easy to use. Now, over 40 years later, the Safari is an instantly recognizable design icon.

The Meteora is a special edition in deep purple with a matching black clip and black steel nib. The barrel and grip section are textured rather than smooth, giving the pen a different feel in the hand from the standard Safari.

Also available in Meteorite, the black version of the same textured special edition.

Why it's special: 

• Highly collectable 
• Interchangeable nibs

• Iconic design by Wolfgang Fabian in 1980
