[Sold] The Adventures of Tom & Huck painted fountain pen
R11,500
Hanna Farmer has illustrated highlights from The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and of Huckleberry Finn on this amazing fountain pen. She has managed to capture so many of the two rascals’ adventures … Tom convincing other boys to pay him for the privilege of whitewashing a the picket fence while he sits munching an apple, fishing on the banks of the Mississippi, Huck and the runaway slave Jim on their raft, riverboats and paddle steamers, the infamous cave where Injun Joe has hidden golden treasure … and quotes from the books, including, “Human beings can be awful cruel to one another.” This fountain pen is a tribute to a set of classics, and is one in its own right.
The pen was made by us at Stanford Pen Studio, painted and zendoodled by Hanna then coated in a clear resin by ourselves and given its final shape, polished, and buffed. It has a silver cap band, section ring, and silver logo medallion in the cap finial, and we have added an avocado-green section.
Each of our hand-painted fountain pens is a 1/1 original work of art, hence no-one else will ever own an identical pen.
Nib:
Available in Jowo #6 in polished steel. Please select Fine, Medium or Broad at the check-out.
The Jabulani model
SPECIFICATIONS
This is a gently curvaceous model, with a relatively wide girth of 16 mm (0,6″) narrowing to a 10,5 mm (0,4″) grip section. It has our logo on the finial, and the finial is ever-so-slightly rounded, rather than dead flat, which adds to the pen’s elegance.
