Description
R 222 015 Rotring Rive fountain pen 1.5mm
As known catalogs show the Rive model came out in 1995. but the actual patent was submitted back in 1992.
So it is not clear when it actually came to stores.
It was available as fountain pen and rollerball and also had very interesting spring display.
Fountain pens started in EF,F,M and B size. Later in 1996. 1.5mm size came out so it is rarer to find today.
Seems that Rive ended production in 1998. since there is no mention of it after 1997.
"SENSUAL ASSOCIATIONS - Rotring Rive
Unconventional, young and simply different.
Its organic form lies optimally in the hand for the writing with a sensory experience.
the material: high quality, shatterproof. Plastic. Particularly practical: the imaginative desk stand with a spring."
At similar time Rivette and Traxx series came out.
Very light beautiful pen.
Official found records only show black version but I have also seen blue and purple version so makes me wonder are there any more and when they were produced.
