Namiki Sterling Silver Butterfly Fountain Pen

Hand-wrought sterling silver enhanced with beautifully etched traditional Japanese designs lend elegance and grace to each piece in Namiki's Sterling Collection.  The simplicity of the pen's design is contrasted against the opulence of the precious material from which it is crafted, sterling silver being a decadent while still restrained precious metal.  The butterfly motif is beautifully applied, adding both depth and nuance to the otherwise gleaming, uninterrupted surface.  The butterfly is a symbol of "gentle strength," well-communicated here through both the etching and the material. The distinctive style of this fountain pen is complemented by an 18-karat gold rhodium-plated medium nib. As with the entire Sterling Silver collection, it is refillable for continued use with a cartridge or Pilot's CON-50 converter.  Nib Material: 18k gold nib Filling Mechanism: Cartridge/Converter Private Select  Manufacturer Namiki Condition Very Good Collection  Sterling Type Foun
