WHY JAPANESE EBONITE?
Since 2015, we have been making metal pens including aluminum, brass, bronze, copper, stainless steel, and titanium. During the last few years, we have been searching for the highest quality Ebonite. We are thrilled to have found the perfect one in Japan. It has a stunning matte-black color with amazing mechanical properties. Ebonite has long been regarded as one of the best materials to make fountain pens. It is excellent for machining, has a beautiful appearance, and it is smooth to the touch. In addition, it absorbs heat rapidly so it warms in your hand while in use and creates a wonderful writing experience. Ebonite is a hard rubber obtained by vulcanizing natural rubber from gum trees with sulfur and linseed oil for prolonged periods.
INK CONVERTER, INK CARTRIDGES, EYE-DROPPING
The pen accepts all standard international ink cartridges and converters, which are widely available worldwide. All pens will include one black ink cartridge and Schmidt ink converter. We also understand the passion for diverse ink options for fountain pen enthusiasts. For this reason, these pens have been designed for eye-dropping capabilities. The body threads have been calibrated to stop the ink from going through. In addition, we incorporated an o-ring seal that prevents any leakage. It is recommended to apply silicone grease in the nib unit threads and section threads when eye-dropping.
GERMAN-MADE NIBS
Pens use #6 nibs made in Germany by Peter Bock. These nibs have been regarded as one of the best performing nibs in the business. All pens come equipped with a black lacquered nib.
ITALIA
Our ITALIA fountain pen is a modern writing instrument inspired by the golden age of Italian pens. It has a minimalistic design with peaked finials and a classic Greek key machined on the cap and section. A matte-black stainless steel clip compliments the design.
