[Sold] Forest Folk hand-painted fountain pen
Carla Nel loves frogs and also loves mushrooms, so this fountain pen combines the two. Living among the leaf litter, Forest Folk love the damp of the forest floor. Carla has portrayed the cutest of these little creatures, painted from a frog’s eye view, and her ‘shrooms have an abundant, riotously happy feel about them. Her colours in the green-turquoise-blue range contribute to the sense of rich moistness.
We have added forest green grip section, an engraved nib, our logo medallion in bronze, and a bronze cap band and bronze section ring.
Each of our hand-painted fountain pens is a 1/1 original work of art. 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 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.
