Pelikan Souverän M600 Art Collection Rudi Rother Special Edition Fountain Pen
This is the 2nd Pen in the Art Collection series. Following up from the enormous success of the 2023 Glauco Cambon, we now present the M601 Art Collection Rudi Rother for 2025
Celebrate the fusion of art and craftsmanship with the Pelikan Souverän M600 Art Collection Rudi Rother Special Edition Fountain Pen – a tribute to historic poster art and timeless design.
Following the acclaim of the Glauco Cambon edition, Pelikan proudly introduces the next masterpiece in its Art Collection: the Souverän® M600 Rudi Rother Special Edition. This extraordinary writing instrument pays homage to the bold, geometric flair of German artist Rudi Rother, renowned for his decorative style and influential advertising posters during the Jugendstil era.
Inspired by History, Crafted for the Present
The pen's barrel features a stunning reinterpretation of Rother’s iconic poster designs, capturing the flowing patterns and stylized elegance of his art. At the heart of the design is a striking holographic effect, achieved through Pelikan’s proprietary Aurora Process — a meticulous technique involving engraving, guilloche, ten layers of lacquer, and multiple rounds of polishing. The result is a smooth, gleaming surface that radiates depth and brilliance with every movement.
Artistic Legacy in Your Hands
This Special Edition is more than a luxury fountain pen — it's a collector's piece deeply rooted in Pelikan’s artistic history.

Rudi Rother, with his whimsical pen-and-ink style and ornamental flair, was among those who helped shape Pelikan's unique visual identity.

Rudi Rother (1863-1909) was a German painter and illustrator. In 1903, he won the coveted annual Pelikan art competition. This was one of Rother’s most significant works which he designed for Pelikan. The woman writing a document next to a pelican depicts a combination of functionalism and aesthetics that is typical of Jugendstil (Germany’s art nouveau movement). Rother’s talent at effectively connecting graphic design and fine art shaped the style of commercial art at the turn of the century. His humorous pen-and-ink illustrations garnered respect particularly in the world of advertising having a decisive influence on commercial art. His work was characterized by flowing lines, ornamental designs, and stylized figures. The pen based off of his design, features an interesting shade of green resin for the section, piston knob, and cap. The barrel takes its inspiration from the pattern in the woman’s dress.
The Special Edition Souverän® M600 captivates with an unmistakable design which makes it a coveted work of art. The cap, forepart, and knob of this extraordinary piston-fill fountain pen are made of a premium, self-polishing resin. The two-tone 14-karat gold nib glides across paper effortlessly, offering soft and powerful written expression. The golden decorative elements on the fountain pen, such as the iconic twin rings and quintessential Pelikan beak clip, are plated with 24-karat gold to emphasize the pen’s elegance and refinement.
Pelikan offers coveted objects of desire: Elegant writing instruments distinguished by a supreme sense of style. Whether as exceptional collector's pieces, cherished gifts or items of timeless beauty, their spirit will inspire. Uncommon materials and singular design. Fine writing instruments find admirers among connoisseurs and casual users alike. It's nearly always love at first sight - or first stroke. Fascination and passion, far more than the sum of its parts. Finely crafted in more than 300 individual steps, a testimony to dedication, precision and perfection. Designed to inspire.
