The Collection Ecridor Type 55
Rhodium-coated steel nib : F, M, B. Ink pump or cartridges.
The hexagonal shape and slender lines of the Ecridor Type 55 are enhanced by the brilliance of its silver-plated, rhodium-coated body. Its decoration is based on the highly distinctive air intakes or gills of the 1967 Mustang. Just as the chrome surfaces of a car catch and hold the light, this decoration plays with contrasts: between mat and gloss, and between different depths of engraving.
Lastly, the motif is a pair of 5s that gives the pen its name: Type 55. This is a code name referring to the car whose memory remains engraved on the spirit of several generations.
