[Available] Mythic Cobras hand-painted fountain pen
R7,500
Cobras are both revered and feared, and with good reason. Kseniia Nel has painted Mythic Cobras in greens and golds, with serious attitude. These serpents are no ordinary snakes and must surely have supernatural powers. Just look at those eyes! (Or perhaps avoid looking into them as one might just become entranced, as happened to Mowgli in Jungle Book when he made the mistake of looking into Kaa’s eyes!)
These Mythic Serpents have flame-red tongues, pale green striped underbellies and Kseniia has painted them against a black and silver-gold background that looks like sliced black marble. We have added a grass green section, silver cap band and section ring and a silver and bronze logo medallion in the cap finial.
Kseniia has would be happy to consider requests for commissioned paintings on our fountain pens. If you would like to discuss a theme, please email us via our website.
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.
