[Sold] The Stoker – steampunk art fountain pen

R8,000

Hanna (@hanna_designs_art) created this amazing steampunk art on one of our pens but very nearly decided not to part with it as she found she and The Stoker had developed a bond. Hardly surprising! The art includes:

The Stoker with his goggles and ear trumpet and steam-kettle as a hat which is adorned with a fine feather; not one but two clocks; an intricate steam-driven airship with an anchor hanging below it; a town with towers and stone turrets with crenelations, flags and buntings. The colours are olde worlde sepia and black with touches of an orangey red. The section is a glossy black with a bronze ring and the cap bears a bronze logo medallion. As final touch, the barrel finial has a tiny old fashioned pipe … the kind used for smoking tobacco.

Hanna drew her artwork on to one of our fountain pen blanks that we specifically designed for the purpose. Once the artwork was complete we coated it in an outer layer of clear resin which allows the owner to carry and use this art on a daily basis without it getting scratched or damaged. A portable, functional, one-of-one original.

This fountain pen is supplied with an engraved stainless steel Jowo nib.

Nib:

Available in Jowo #6 in polished steel. Please select Fine, Medium or Broad at the check-out.
