Ystudio Portable Fountain Pen
Carefully crafted from solid brass, this fountain pen was designed to remind us of the weight and substance that our words can carry. Its simple, clean design is timelessly elegant and made to last a lifetime and be passed on to future generations. As you use it, it will develop a unique patina, telling the story of the hours and ideas you have shared with it.
Part of Ystudio's Portable pen line, this pen includes a lanyard loop in the cap, along with a leather string for tying the cap to a belt, bag, or shoulder strap. It also includes a protective wooden shell with a smooth minimalist design and a sleek black finish. The shell includes a slot for the lanyard loop to fit through, so you can still use the loop while the pen is in the shell.
Inspired by the look of well-used vintage cameras, this "Brassing" pen is treated with a matte black lacquer finish that will wear off over time, exposing the solid brass body underneath. Once exposed, the raw brass will also darken and deepen over time. How this patina develops depends on how you use the pen—the more you write with it, the more unique your pen will become!
For those who want to take a more hands-on approach to customizing the look of their pen, it also comes with a sheet of sandpaper that you can use to intentionally remove some or all of black coating.
The two tone finish is stunning on the brassing pen. It became my favorite immediately. It’s built of quality materials and I enjoy the weight of metal pen. The hexagonal barrel stops it from rolling off the desk which is an added plus. And to top it all off the nib is so sweet. If you are thinking about pulling the trigger on this purchase do so without hesitation.
