The Henrik Wigstrom Trophy Pen is the first in a series of limited edition writing instruments based on the elegant style and artistic mastery of Old World craftsmanship.

Inspired by his 1907 masterpiece, this one-of-a-kind collection stands as a tribute to the fabulous works of Henrik Wigstrom, Head Workmaster to Peter Carl Fabergé. 

Hand-crafted from .925 Sterling Silver, each individual instrument passes through multiple stages of precision engraving, creating a beautiful pattern known as "guilloché" 

This engraving technique, which brings life and light to the surface of precious metals was used repeatedly by Wigstrom and Fabergé in the creation of the Imperial Eggs and countless objets de fantasie.

Translucent hard enamel is ground by hand and applied with a quill to the guilloché surface of the silver. Each piece is then fired in a furnace at temperatures exceeding 1,400° F, where the enamel is fused to the silver and formed into glass. 

The glowing pieces are removed and cooled, then ground by hand with a diamond file to restore their original shape and surface.

This tedious process is performed repeatedly to achieve the depth of enamel needed to cover the peaks and fill the valleys of the guilloché pattern.

The final stage of firing requires no grinding, filing or polishing. The result is a perfect finish of translucent glass enamel.

Engineered in Heidelberg, Germany and bearing the monogram of Henrik Wigstrom, the 18-karat gold nib is unsurpassed in quality and form. 

Coupled with an ebonite feeder, each nib is plated with rhodium and tipped with iridium to ensure durability in fine, medium and broad sizes.
