The art of damascus steel craftsmanship has a long history. In this craft, objects made of steel or iron are decorated by engraving a pattern onto the surface. A thin sheet of gold is placed over the design and deeply embedded into the material with the help of a small hammer. To highlight the pattern, the item is heated to approximately 800°C, causing oxidation of the steel and revealing the shine of the gold.
This technique traveled with the Arabs to Spain and was perfected in the city of Toledo. In 1931, Pelikan adopted this method for the Toledo model, which has retained its traditional design. The decorative casing is made from a piece of sterling silver and covered with a layer of gold.
