Inspired by the flowing hull of a yacht, the Carene combines a tapered black body with warm gold trim and a distinctive inlaid 18k gold nib that appears to emerge directly from the section.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCraftsmanship \u0026amp; Design\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design avoids the abrupt transitions common to many fountain pens. The cap, barrel, and section flow into one another with a nautical sense of movement, while the inlaid nib keeps the front of the pen exceptionally clean. The black-and-gold finish is the most traditional interpretation of the Carene and emphasizes the sculptural form rather than competing with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWriting Experience\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 18k Medium nib delivers a broad, smooth everyday line and sits firmly within the section rather than projecting as a conventional open nib. Waterman's cartridge-converter system offers easy maintenance and access to bottled ink. The snap cap also makes the Carene especially practical for frequent note taking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCollector Perspective\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Carene has remained a distinctive part of Waterman's modern catalog because it does not simply imitate the classic cigar-shaped luxury pen. Its yacht-inspired profile and inlaid nib give it a visual identity that remains immediately recognizable, making the Black \u0026amp; Gold version an excellent representation of contemporary French Waterman design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Type: Fountain Pen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: Excellent Preowned Condition - without Box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCollection: Carene\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Black \u0026amp; Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNib Material: 18k gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNib Size: Medium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFilling System: Cartridge Converter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrimary Color: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of Origin: France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Waterman","offers":[{"title":"Medium","offer_id":54564930748691,"sku":"WA-CARENE-BG-M","price":299.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2083\/6627\/files\/Waterman-Carene-Fountain-Pen-Black-_-Gold-uncapped-leaning.jpg?v=1788468332","url":"https:\/\/www.truphaeinc.com\/products\/waterman-carene-fountain-pen-black-and-gold","provider":"Truphae","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
