PINEIDER AVATAR SAFFRON YELLOW FOUNTAIN PEN. Pineider Avatar “Saffron Yellow” – Original First-Generation 2018 Launch – Fine Steel Nib – Silver Trim – Box & Converter – Discontinued Colorway. From the original 2018 launch of Pineider’s Avatar collection: the Saffron Yellow, in the first-generation “stone effect” resin that started it all – and a colorway that was discontinued when the line was redesigned in 2019. If you want the Avatar as it first appeared, in its most flamboyant color, this is it. The resin is the show: don’t let “yellow” fool you – this is a swirling, semi-translucent flame of orange and gold, with the depth and chatoyance of vintage celluloid. Light doesn’t just reflect off this pen; it passes. It, revealing dimension and movement beneath the surface. Reviewers at the time called the material the best part of the pen, and singled out its intoxicating glow. Every barrel’s swirl pattern is unique. Florentine details everywhere you look. Wide cap band finely engraved with the skyline of Florence, Pineider’s home since 1774. Pineider’s signature quill-feather clip in solid steel, spring-compensated for easy pocketing. Magnetic soft-touch cap closure – uncaps with a smooth pull, snaps shut securely. Sculpted polished metal section. Rhodium-plated steel Fine nib – a smooth, reliable writer with a crisp fine line. Fills via the included converter or standard international cartridges. Pineider Avatar Saffron Yellow fountain pen, Fine nib, silver trim. Original Pineider gift box. Great condition – the flame-orange resin, silver trim, Florence band, and nib all present beautifully, and the magnetic cap snaps home just as it should. See photos of the exact pen. Pineider has been crafting fine writing goods in Florence since 1774, and the 2018 Avatar was the pen that introduced many collectors to the brand’s modern revival.
