With this new Special Edition, Pelikan has created an exclusive piece inspired by the myth of Daedalus and his son Icarus, adorned with symbols that recall this legendary story.

Art and technology are deeply intertwined in this edition, just as they were in ancient Greece with the myth of Daedalus, a craftsman and architect famous for his skill and dexterity. The emblem of Icarus, crafted in solid 925 sterling silver, together with an alpaca clip and an 18-karat gold nib engraved and decorated with rhodium, add a touch of luxury and refinement to this unique fountain pen.

This limited edition of 800 pieces refers to the 8th century BC, when Homer was the first to mention Daedalus in his writings, marking a milestone in the history of literature and mythology.
