Franklin-Christoph Model 31 Fountain Pen - Andromeda (Limited Edition)
Introducing our fifth annual exclusive collaboration with Franklin-Christoph! This limited edition Model 31 style fountain pen features a stunning custom blended resin that we've named Andromeda. The constellation-inspired sparkling resin has a greenish teal primary color but as the light shifts, you'll see blue and violet! The design is unique in every pen and no two are exactly alike. The Diamondcast resin is made by Tim McKenzie of McKenzie Penworks and features real diamond dust infused into the resin.
Only 200 pens of this design are available.
The Model 31 pen has a screw-cap to open/close and pushes to post, and has a silver clip. It comes with a standard international converter and fits both short and long standard international cartridges. You can also convert it to eyedropper fill.
It is completed with a smooth-writing #6 JoWo nib in a variety of size offerings.
We do our best to photograph the pens to show how they will appear in person, but due to the nature of the material, expect some variation in the pattern from what you see here. We’re unable to honor any preferential pattern requests at this time.
