Art during the Renaissance presented a more realistic take on the world. From Da Vinci’s use of sfumato or soft shading, to Carraviago’s mastery of chiaroscuro or lighting contrasts, there was continuous experimentation on interpreting life through the use of light and shadow. 

This was the inspiration behind the Pelikan M1000 Renaissance Brown released in 2024, with its strokes of beige and amber against swirls of dark brown and black. This pen carries slightly different rings on the cap and piston as they were made from a single piece of metal, compared to the usual two-ring design. It’s installed with a two-tone, rhodium-plated 18C-750 gold nib.

For sale is a pre-owned Pelikan M1000 Renaissance Brown with an M nib. It has very minimal micro scratches and is in good working condition. It comes complete with its box, papers, and other inserts.
