[Sold] Picasso-inspired hand-painted fountain pen
Hanna Farmer’s Picasso-inspired fountain pen has so many details it will take its owner months to find each one. There are ‘a few of her favourite things’ in this semi-self-portrait, with a cup of coffee, a Yorkie named Gizmo … who might also be a Morkie, rain (with an umbrella), a fountain pen (of course!), an artist’s brush and palette, a rabbit, a bottle, a wine glass, faces that reflect different aspects of one’s personality, doodles and eyelashes and flowers and, and, and …. What a magnificent work of art, Hanna. No wonder it took you much longer than many of your other pens!
This fountain pen was made by us at Stanford Pen Studio, illustrated by Hanna then coated in a clear resin by ourselves and given its final shape, polished, and buffed. It has a hand-made silver section ring, cap band and a logo medallion in the cap finial, and we have added a grip section in a custom-made turquoise resin.
Each of our hand-painted fountain pens is a 1/1 original work of art, hence 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.
