Experience a journey through time with the Kaweco Ebonit Sport. This pen not only draws inspiration from products crafted over a century ago in its design, but it also features a historically significant material. In an era before the invention of injection molding, ebonite was the preferred choice for crafting writing instruments. The name “ebonite” originates from “ebony,” as it shares a similar color and hardness with hard rubber. The material boasts striking marbling and a highly polished surface, reminiscent of precious exotic wood. It’s composed of natural rubber and sulfur, making it entirely natural. The addition of gold-plated elements enhances the pen’s nostalgic character, highlighting the warm brown grain. A meticulous burin engraving complements the rich history behind this craftsmanship.
As a delightful addition, the limited set includes a nostalgic gold clip to securely attach the pen to a writing pad. Alongside the standard royal blue ink cartridge in the fountain pen, you’ll also find a convenient 10-pack of all Kaweco ink colors, allowing you to personalize your writing. Everything is elegantly presented in packaging inspired by historical cardboard boxes from the past.
Please note that due to the sulfur content, the pen develops a unique patina and gains its own individual coloring over time. You can easily restore it to its original condition with a simple polish, making it a truly collectible item.
