Porsche Design P’3140 Black Compact Ballpoint Pen

Original version of the popular P’3140 ShakePen compact ballpoint by Porsche Design. Grooved rubber barrel and matt silver cap and nose. Extend and retract the tip with a flick of the wrist. P’3140 is a compact and pocketable pen. It’s small (just 103mm long with a barrel diameter of 10mm) but weighty (approx 30g); the materials are a tactile joy; and the shake to extend/retract action is very cool. The projection on the end cap stops it rolling off your desk. Black medium refill. Refill with Pelikan 38 or any D1 multipen refill. Unusually graceful in appearance, very practical in everyday use, and remarkably long-lasting: products designed by Ferdinand Alexander Porsche deliberately avoid pretentious looks and are instead based on clear lines. The uncompromising high standard of design makes them unmistakable. That applies to the Porsche 911 sports car just as much as the Porsche Design writing instruments.
