Just Keep Swimming doodled fountain pen
ZAR6,500.00 – ZAR7,000.00
Nemo and friend are two delightful clown fish on this fountain pen, doodled by Hanna Farmer. Hanna’s design reminds of Dora’s advice that no matter what comes our way we must Just Keep Swimming. Lana has matched Hanna’s sea-grass-green with the perfect colour she created for the cap and grip section. It goes well with the ink in the photos, chiku-rin (meaning bamboo forest), part of the Iroshizuku series by Pilot.
This pen is in our new Intwana model. (Intwana means “smaller one” in Xhosa, as it is smaller than our standard Jabulani model.) It has a stainless steel cap band and section ring, a silver-coloured clip and our silver logo surrounded by a bronze ring embedded in the cap finial.
Each of our hand-painted fountain pens is an original work of art. You are more than welcome to contact us with a request for a commissioned fountain pen by Hanna in a unique theme of your own.
Nib:
Available in Jowo #6 in polished steel. Please select Fine, Medium or Broad at the check-out. We have some 1.1 and 1.5 stubs in stock at the moment as well, so these are also options that can be selected.
Intwana model
SPECIFICATIONS
The new model, the Intwana (meaning Smaller One in Xhosa), is shorter and slimmer, better suited to people who prefer smaller pens or who have smaller hands.
The Intwana model’s cap has a 2-start thread, which means that it opens and closes with a single turn. It has bronze cap and section rings, and the clip is gold-plated.
