Magical Golden Horse painted fountain pen
ZAR8,200.00
Once upon a time there was a golden horse … . Yulia Glas has been painting magical creatures lately and this beautiful, magical, golden horse stands out as being extraordinary. The horse is painted in two tones of gold, bright gold and rose gold; with a turquoise wash for the shading. It has the longest of eyelashes, and there is a shower of golden droplets as it flicks its magnificent mane. This horse could surely grant wishes and carry one to faraway lands. She has painted it against a shimmering, colour-shift background that looks like she crushed sapphires into her paint. The sparkling deep blue is interspersed with an almost invisible pattern in the blackest of black paint.
The cap has an explosion of vibrant floral patterns, wildly exuberant, with the same golds and turquoises in acanthus and fern leaf patterns, with dots and curlicues against the midnight blue. It genuinely looks as if Yulia uses crushed gems instead of paint.
Lana has mixed a deep, deep blue resin for the section material and we have added an Argentium silver cap band, section ring and logo medallion embedded in the cap finial.
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.
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.
