Finished in a deep, metallic black lacquer, the “Black Diamond” exudes a refined, understated luxury. Its richly layered surface reveals subtle depth and brilliance under changing light, perfectly complemented by sleek platinum-toned trim. The pen’s complex, multi-part construction—engineered with remarkable precision—ensures both durability and balance, elevating it far beyond the ordinary.

Fitted as a rollerball, the Edson delivers a fluid, effortless writing experience, combining the smooth glide of liquid ink with the convenience of modern refill technology. The substantial profile offers a confident, ergonomic feel, while the spring-loaded clip and secure snap cap reflect the same attention to detail found throughout its design.

No longer in production, the Edson “Black Diamond” has become increasingly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts alike. It is more than a writing instrument—it is a statement piece, embodying innovation, heritage, and enduring style in equal measure.

It is important to note that these pens were previously used as display items and may show light micro-surface scratches on the clip. Each pen includes a new leather pen case (valued at $65); however, no original box or papers are included. Please note that a rollerball refill is not included.
