Johan Faber started also a production of fountain pens around the '20s; they were mainly [[safety]] hard rubber pens but a [[button filler]] was also produced; also some metal models were produced. The company logo consisted of two crossed hammers, and on the hard rubber models caps was imprinted the name Johan Faber, also reported on the clip. In the late '20s a [[piston filler]] series was produced, with rounded ends and up to four band on the cap.

The main branch of the company remained under ''Lothar Faber'' direction until his death, after that his wife took over the management and then, in [[1898]], the count ''Alexander zu Castell'', who had married his niece. He renamed the company using the name under which its is still known today, transforming it into the  ''A. W. Faber-Castell''. The production, however, remained focused on pencils, and the first fountain pen, a hard rubber [[safety]] pen, is traced back to [[1908]]. The pen was imprinted with the words ''A. W. Faber-Castell'' and given the similarity of its filling mechanism, is quite probable that it had been produced by [[Kaweco]] on commission.
