The company’s history began 1918 in Pforzheim, the traditional German metropolis of jewellery in the Black Forest, as a production facility for high class push action and twist action pencils, made from gold and silver. Subsequently, Waldmann developed and manufactured fountain pens and ball pens made from metals such as brass, silver or 18 carat gold! Waldmann writing instruments with special twist mechanisms for 2 and 4 colour pen systems achieved worldwide patents. For the first time, this masterstroke was honoured on the occasion of the world exposition in Paris in 1937, namely with a silver medal for a 4 colour twist action pencil.

Nowadays, as already in its founding year, Waldmann still manufactures its writing instruments at 100% on its German location. Thus, the products from the Waldmann manufactory rightly bear the designation ‘Made in Germany’. Moreover, Waldmann made a name for themselves as a specialist for exceptional surfaces. Thereby, the old craftsmanship of engraving is to be highlighted. Only a few master craftsmen of engraving do still master the ‘Vienna pattern’, and only Waldmann can provide writing instruments with this unique and elegant engraving – bit by bit one of a kind.
