Once Upon a Design

The Brush Fountain Pen takes its namesake and familiarity from the contoured silhouette of an artist's paintbrush. This shape was designed for good balance in-hand, while remaining comfortable over a long period of time. These characteristics are valued by every modern day writer or illustrator wanting to use inspiring tools that function as well as they look.

Drawing parallels to the ferrule, traditionally a metal section that holds the bristles of a brush, the grip section of the Brush fountain pen plays the important role of securing the nib. The spirited etchings on the grip are inspired by the mechanical components of our vintage printmaking studio equipment; including the flywheel of a 1912 Pearl letterpress, and a fully functional Underwood typewriter – the 'original' modern method of typesetting. The fanning geometric lines are analogous to the type hammers of a typewriter, each carrying it's own miniature metal type block, waiting to be activated. And like how the carriages of a ferris wheel support its riders, the cylindrical carriage of a typewriter transports its paper in a horizontal and circular fashion.

I was honestly delighted by this pen. I wasn't expecting it to write this smoothly with shimmer ink. It lays down a medium line and I had no issues with the nib.

Mind you, the engraving on the nib section has a texture that will take some getting used to.

This is a lovely color and exactly as presented on the website. I got it in Medium nib, loaded with Ruby Royal Flush and it flows wonderfully. It feels very sturdy and comfortable to hold.

There are a few things I am not fond of with the pen, however. The packaging is a nicely designed box but very loosely fitted, causing the case that holds the pen to slide right out upon opening. I got two pens, and the other one has tight fit on the box, so this is a quality control issue.
As the pen has a screw-on cap, it can somehow accidentally loosen the grip from the barrel. This, of course, can be avoided by not screwing the cap on too tightly, but I'd expect the design to prevent this from happening at all at such a price point.

Lovely Pen!

I love this pen! It's so gorgeous—especially the intricate detailing on the nib, and the lovely persimmon colour! It's a very sturdy pen, comfortably solid to write with and a very worthwhile purchase.
