rOtring was founded in Hamburg in 1928 as Tintenkuli Handels GmbH and is best known for technical drawing instruments, particularly the Rapidograph and Isograph pens and the 600/800 mechanical pencils. Its fountain pens follow the same functional, matte-black-and-red-ring industrial aesthetic; the ArtPen calligraphy and sketch line and the hexagonal metal 600 are the best-known examples. The company was acquired by Sanford (Newell Brands) in 1998 and its fountain pen offering is now limited and modestly priced.
