Black Caviar Finish,Triangular Diamond Etched Polished PVD Finish,Sleek faceted clip design, unique, intricately designed durable finishes. Threaded cap and barrel design holds cap securely in place when cap is in the closed or posted position. Comes with a twist action ballpoint. The fountain pen is cartridge fill only.
At just 8mm diameter, the fountain pen feels exactly the same as using a slightly weighty conventional lead pencil. The screw-top cap is removed and posted with a corresponding male thread machined into the top end. This functions in 2 ways, extending the length of the pen to a significant 153mm and adjusting the balance on a very light pen of just 18 grams.
The nib is quite special for such a small pen. Visually, it looks almost out of place because of its size – a full sized-nib on a miniature pen.
