Floral Spirals hand-painted fountain pen

R8,200

What an elegant fountain pen Yulia Glas has painted! Her spirals in tiny dots of gold are intertwined with leaves and flowers. Using a very limited range of colours she has managed to create a magical effect. Speaking of colours, Yulia discovered this Super Black paint she has used as the background which is said to absorb 99,9…% of all light, making it one of the blackest blacks around. She says that when she looks into that black it is like looking into a black hole and she tends to get lost in it. By adding her sage-green, teal, pomegranate-red, touches of azure and dots of gold she has created an eye-catchingly sophisticated fountain pen. Bravo, Yulia!

Each of our hand-painted fountain pens is a 1/1 original work of art. If you would like to request a custom pen from Yulia, you are welcome to contact us via the contact form on our website.

The Jabulani model

SPECIFICATIONS

This is a gently curvaceous model, with a girth of 16 mm (0,6”), narrowing to a 10,7 mm (0,4”) grip section. The relatively large size of the model is to allow the artist sufficient space for their artwork, and the artwork is encased in a layer of clear resin to protect it from getting damaged during day-to-day use. Our logo medallion is embedded in the cap finial which is ever-so-slightly rounded, and the barrel finial is ever-so-slightly conical. The cap is a flush-fit and does not post. The Jabulani model usually comes with a hand-made, cap band and section ring in either Argentium silver or bronze, though this may differ depending on what best suits the artwork. Custom hand-crafted roll stops can be added.
