Paid $20 for this Rotring

Hallo @Zylo_99 , seems you scored something nice! Just to double check: what I see in the pictures is a pencil, isn’t it? I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything quite like this. Where did you manage to find and acquire such an item?

Oh no. It is not a pencil. It is a Rotring Newton Rollerball in a lava finish.

Wonderful score. You could probably get over $300 USD for it.

Yup. It is nice to look at.

It’s also nice to touch. I like the texture.

But be mindful… it will wear down over time. I did this as an “experiment,” using a rOtring Newton BP Lava for a full year (on and off). You could definitely see the texture smoothed out and began to wear through to a black undercoating.

This rOtring Trio Lava isn’t mine, but the person who owns it posted the photo to show how it’s wearing. You can see it doesn’t hold up over time.
