[Sold] Titania silvery lilac fountain pen
R2,890
Titania is the Fairy Queen in Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and this pen fits that name perfectly. (Did you see Michelle Pfeiffer in the role of Titania in the 1999 film version, in which she was mesmerisingly gorgeous?)
The material is a magical mix of silvery lilac, mulberry, and moonbeams glittering on amethyst crystals. It speaks to me of dreams and names suggested by our friends on Instagram included Twilight Slumber, Tanzanite Dream, Moonlit Amethyst, Mystique Dream, Perchance to Dream, Dreamweaver, The Sandman, Daydreamer, and Dreamcatcher.
From the moment I first saw the first blank come out of the mould I knew it would match perfectly with silver, so we asked our jeweller friend Aileen Février to make a truly dainty little roll stop. She created these perfect little silver balls that work perfectly and match the delicacy of the pens. Dave made these pens in our Jabulani model, which is gently curvaceous and added one modification: he included our stainless steel logo on the cap’s finial.
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.
