The Souverän is the classic from Pelikan. The black-green striped barrel is recognized worldwide as a symbol of the Pelikan brand. The production of the Souverän barrel involves an elaborate process, as a striped piece of cotton material is crafted in many steps according to a special formula developed for Pelikan, which is then bent and subsequently shaped to contour with a diamond. The gold-plated rings on the upper and lower parts are fitted with the utmost precision before the writing instrument is polished to a high gloss. The slightly springy, typical Pelikan beak clip gives this high-quality writing instrument its distinctive design. The Souverän K600 twist ballpoint pen is equipped with a large-capacity refill in black ink.
