Metal Series Rust Matte Finish

The rust fountain pen has kind of a funny origin. We have a black wrought iron table in our backyard. It's exposed to the elements and needs some refurbishing.

One day, i found a large piece of black paint that had peeled off the underside of the table. When i picked it up and turned it over, the underside had this amazing pattern of swirled blacks, grays, and copper-colored rust. I took it straight to the resin station, and we went to work. The result was this stunning pen, and we added a dragon head finial in the cap for a more elegant finish. We liked this pen so much, it inspired a series.

That's the origin of the metal series. One thing worth clarifying is that the pens in the metal series are, in fact, resin pens that are inspired by different metals. They are not metal pens. Our custom fountain pens are made by hand, one at a time, from resins that we pour in-house. Each pen is light weight with sleek lines, a pleasure to write with, and a unique work of art. The pen you see pictured here is the actual pen you will receive. Because each pen is made by hand, there will be minor variations in the size. But the approximate specifications for each pen are. + 146mm long with the cap on.

+ 170mm long with the cap posted for writing. + 15.6mm cap diameter (widest point). Mm body diameter (widest point). + 17 grams average weight. + standard international ink cartridge or converter.

(1 black cartridge and 1 converter included). Additional nib sizes, materials, and grinds are available as a special request. Specialty nibs might add additional time and cost to your order. Sincere thanks for checking out the shop.
