Pelikan proudly presents the third chapter of the Pelikan Art Collection: THE SOUVERÄN M600 PELIKAN ART COLLECTION GEORG TIPPEL. This special edition reinterprets a defining artwork from Pelikan’s early visual heritage and transforms it into a contemporary writing instrument.
Tippel’s "Grundfarben" presents the pelican as a nurturing parent caring for its young - a symbol rooted in historical legend and long associated with devotion, responsibility and trust. Through form, colour and composition, Tippel transformed a commercial poster into a narrative image of enduring resonance. His work communicates not only a product, but a set of values - continuity, responsibility and commitment - that still remain central to Pelikan today.
A subtle yet expressive detail from Tippel’s original artwork defines the design of this edition. The flowing cloud formations from the sky of the 1899 poster have been reimagined as an abstract, rhythmic pattern across the decorative sleeve of the fountain pen.
Crafted using the sophisticated Aurora process, the barrel features finely engraved guilloché structures beneath multiple layers of lacquer, creating a luminous surface that enhances the visual presence of the design.
Presented in a book-style package with a miniature reproduction of Tippel’s historic poster, the edition unites artwork and writing instrument in a single experience.
