In the unlikely event you missed it, today is known as Fountain Pen Day all over the world.

The fountain pen styles in use today were developed by Lewis Waterman in 1884 after he purportedly lost a business deal due to a leaking pen. Fountain pens are still used widely around the world due to their smooth writing experience without pressure, which lends to better handwriting, and interestingly more left-handed people use fountain pens than right.

The Wingback Fountain Pen is our modern take on the classic writing tool. It has a compact travel-friendly design, but extends to a full length writer. It comes with the coveted Bock mono iridium pointed nib for ultra smooth work, and has a clever hermetic sealing system to ensure it writes from the first stroke even if you don't use it for weeks.

Available in Brass, Steel, Titanium and with a few Black Steel pieces remaining.
