Pelikan M 400 Souverän Fountain Pen

The Pelikan Souveraen M 400 is the original — the pen from which the entire Souveraen legacy was born. First introduced in 1950, the Model 400 with its distinctive black-and-green pinstripe sleeve became a symbol of the Pelikan brand worldwide and remains the company's most enduring ambassador to this day.

The 14K/585 bi-colour gold nib with rhodium trim delivers the smooth, characterful writing experience that defines every Souveraen — a pen that feels as individual as the handwriting it produces. The classic piston mechanism allows for generous, direct ink loading from any bottled ink, continuing a Pelikan tradition stretching back to the world's first patented piston fountain pen in 1929.

At 12.7cm and 14.9g, the M 400 is the most compact and lightweight of the Souveraen range — perfectly proportioned for writers who prefer a smaller pen with full Souveraen prestige. The individual striped cellulose acetate barrel is hand diamond-cut and polished to a brilliant lustre. Available in multiple colour ways with F, M, and B nibs.
