The Rotring Initial collection has a very sleek, modern look as it combines both classical and modern elements to create a writing tool of distinction and character. The contrasting colors of polished and matte silver make the Initial an instrument as contemporary as it is cool. Ergonomically shaped barrels are made of high gloss cast acrylic that is hard to distinguish from a lacquer finish. The barrels of each color perfectly complement the uniquely arched clip and brilliant chrome ends. The Initial ballpoint pens have easy glide push top mechanism for maximum convenience.
