Pelikan news of a new Classic model M200 to accompany this year’s Golden Beryl, the seventh such release from the company based on their line of limited edition inks. Prior to the M200 Golden Beryl, we have had the; M205 Moonstone (2020), M205 Star Ruby (2019), M205 Olivine (2018), M200 Smoky Quartz (2017), M205 Aquamarine (2016), and the M205 Amethyst (2015).
Some of these models have made a bigger splash than others and several are now quite hard to come by. It was 2019’s Star Ruby that first employed a glitter induced shimmer effect along the translucent material of the barrel and cap and, like the M205 Moonstone that preceded it, the Golden Beryl looks to incorporate the same. Pre-orders are going live today from many vendors with this one due out sometime in November 2021. Read on to discover all of the essential details regarding the newest fountain pen out of Germany.
he M200 Golden Beryl fountain pen has been alive in the imaginations of many devout fans since we learned of this year’s Edelstein Ink of the Year back in January. The golden beryl gemstone displays a wide range of colors, but the ink has a wonderful golden-yellow hue, further distinguished by being Pelikan’s first ever shimmer ink. The M200 Golden Beryl fountain pen, like its namesake ink and two preceding models, will also incorporate a shimmering effect. Perhaps this design is more fitting here than on any of the other models that we’ve seen so far given the unique shimmering characteristics of the Golden Beryl ink. The effect has been well implemented with the prior models and, at least to me, has not come off as ostentatious, overblown, or gimmicky, despite how it might otherwise sound. The base material appears to once again be translucent resulting in the creation of a demonstrator, this time with a clear, satin finish. The company’s promotional materials describe the pens like so;

“An extraordinary ink needs an extraordinary pen to match with. The new Classic 200 Golden Beryl creates the perfect fit together with the golden shimmering Edelstein® ink Golden Beryl. The slightly satined-transparent material allows a glimpse into the inside of the ink reservoir. If the pen is filled with Golden Beryl ink, it shows the fascinating flow of the golden shimmering elements swirling around when the pen is moved. At the same time the material itself glows in fine golden lights to harmonize with the ink impression.“
