Napkin Forever Pininfarina Cambiano Inkless Pen - Matt Black

Great product. Looks great as a piece of design, but also beautiful to use to sketch

This is a great pencil,but don't hope it will like a pen.

Beautiful style but ineffective as a pen/ pencil. Expensive for what it is

Very cool pen/cil. Looks lovely too

My daughter bought me one of these as a gift knowing that I am a sucker for a nice pen / pencil. I really wanted to like it, and initial impressions do not disappoint: the design is beautiful, the build quality is top drawer, and it has a really nice feel in the hand. However, things completely change when you try to actually use it: it simply doesn't work. Yes, if you press hard then it does leave a mark on the paper, but it so feint as to be barely legible. I wondered if it was the paper, so I tried several different types: Rhodia, Moleskine, Leuchturm, standard A4 printer stock, all with exactly the same result: it just doesn't work. The only thing more disappointing than the pen itself, was the service from the manufacturer - an exchange of emails with their customer care team concluded with them washing their hands of the matter, refusing to accept a return, and saying that it is meant to have, and I quote, "a light and delicate line". Given that this was a gift from my daughter (who spent significantly more than she normally would) I am extremely disappointed. Summary: 10 out of 10 for design, zero out of 10 for actually writing with.

Bought a couple of these as presents direct from Italy but one of them had a broken nib which meant it wouldn't write properly and looked quite bad. Unfortunately the manufacturer would not accept that it was poor quality and basically said buyer beware. So much for a pen that lasts forever. I've bought several of this type, only this Napkin one from Italy had a problem, possibly because it has a sharper, longer "nib" compared to other brands and makes.

Qualité top! Librado avant prévu! Très satisfait!

Super

spektakuläres Design. ein schönes Geschenk!

Je suis extrêmement partagé concernant cet article. On apprécie toujours qu'un instrument d'écriture soit beau et bien fini. À ce niveau, et encore plus si l'on tient compte du prix, ce stylo est irréprochable : matériaux bois et acier de très belle qualité, design superbe, belle tenue en main, magnifique boîte en bois massif qui fait également office de support. Cinq étoiles. Mais on apprécie aussi qu'un instrument d'écriture...écrive bien. Et là, c'est plutôt décevant. La pointe donne un peu l'impression de gratter le papier plutôt que de glisser dessus, et il est nécessaire d'appuyer considérablement pour obtenir un trait clairement visible. Je pourrais davantage imaginer ce bel instrument comme servant à réaliser des croquis pour un architecte, par exemple. Ou pour coucher sur papier des choses que l'on souhaite rendre ineffaçables. Peut-être la pointe va-t-elle s'assouplir à force d'écrire avec ? À voir dans le temps. Le concept laisse donc une impression mitigée mais étant donné son originalité et la beauté sculpturale de l'objet, je ne regrette (étrangement) pas cet achat, qui sera sans doute davantage un objet de collection qu'un instrument régulièrement utilisé.

Es un regalo caro pero que si la persona es coleccionista de bolígrafos le va a encantar. Es muy bonito. Pinta como un lápiz pero viene en un estuche de madera y es estéticamente bonito.
