Graf von Faber-Castell

The company was founded in 1761 and from the mid-19th century developed into the leading manufacturer of writing instruments. The Faber-Castell company takes its name from Ottilie von Faber's marriage in 1898 to Count Alexander zu Castell-Rüdenhausen, a scion of one of the oldest noble families in Germany. The Graf von Faber-Castell collections produce the company's finest writing instruments. The distinctive appearance of the pens makes it clear that you are writing with one of the noblest writing instruments available.
