World’s expensive pen?

A pen is a typical writing instrument that can be used to write or draw ink on a surface, generally paper. Early styles like reed pens, Quill types, dip types, or rule styles included little quantities of ink on a nib or a small void or cavity to be regularly loaded with an inkwell on the tip of a pen.  Such pens now have few specialist applications, such as in illustration and calligraphy.

The ball-point styles, rollerball styles, springs and dipped styles used to write have been replaced with felt styles and ceramic tip styles. Ruling plumbing that was utilized in technical drawing and mapping has been replaced by technical plumbing such as Rapidograph. All these current styles include internal ink storage tanks so that they don’t have to be inked during writing.
