[Sold] The Wanderer hand-painted fountain pen
R7,000
I love Brandon Lodewyk’s paintings on our pens as there is always a story beneath a story. In this painting he has The Wanderer, with their back to us, wearing a hooded cloak. The Wanderer is in a foreign landscape, a desert, with pyramid-like shapes in the background and is armed with their trusty weapon – a fountain pen (naturally!). They are encountering UFOs (Unknown Foreign Objects) which are entering through a Worm Hole (as can be seen by the difference in the stars seen on the other side of the worm hole, compared to the stars in the night sky on this side of it). The question this painting raises is, even when we are equipped with the right skills and equipment (including our pens), do we have the courage to venture off into the Unknown?
This pen was made by us at Stanford Pen Studio, illustrated by Brandon in graphite and acrylic paint then coated in a clear resin by ourselves and given its final shape, polished, and buffed. We have added a deep grey grip section, as well as a bronze section ring, bronze cap band and our logo medallion (in bronze) embedded in the cap finial.
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.

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.
