Stardust hand-painted fountain pen
R8,200
Yulia Glas’s art on this fountain pen makes me think of what it would be like to paint with stardust. Her delicate floral pattern change from sapphire to violet as the light strikes it at different angles. And the background is painted with a special colour she discovered recently. (Or lack of colour, would be more accurate!) This Super Black paint is the blackest black she has ever seen. It is extremely expensive and she can see why … it literally seems to absorb light and give anything painted on top of it an extraordinary boost. Which is certainly true with the spectacular pattern she has painted in this floral motif, using colour-shift paint. We have added a glossy black grip section, silver section ring, cap band 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.

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.
