[Sold] The Lighthouse Keeper fountain pen
R11,000
With his well-worn captain’s cap, roguish eye patch, long pipe and even longer beard, The Lighthouse Keeper takes his responsibility seriously of keeping ships safe from harm.
The level of detail on the barrel of this pen is impressive: Hanna Farmer has done her research and included lighthouse designs from 1930 and as far back as 1878. There are buoys, a telescope, lights, waves, and even a tiny lighthouse keeper fishing, and another drawing of him peering through his telescope.
This 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 bronze cap band, section ring, and logo medallion in the cap finial, and we have added a deep navy blue section.
One thing we ought to emphasize is that 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 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.
