Premium Resin Special Release & Fountain Pen Day Pricing

Specially curated for Fountain Pen Day, the Creme Caramel Vertex features European resin machined body and cap in a color that made us lick our lips in excitement. A predominantly golden brown base is swirled with white, dark brown, and some black that creates a lovely blend of colors reminding of us creme caramel taffy or similar sweets. Some people think brown resin is particularly boring, the Creme Caramel Vertex is anything but.  

The Creme Caramel Vertex Fountain Pen Day Special Release features resin sourced from The Turner's Workshop in the UK. Erinoid Bronze is a darker version of Bronze premium resin used by a few Italian pen makers that primarily features a white base with bronze and light brown swirls. This Erinoid resin leans more into the brown and bronze rather than the white. The material cut smooth and precise on our Swiss lathes, and during the sanding and polishing showed the true luster of the material. Hand-polishing during the final step shows a brilliant depth between the semi-translucent light brown and the opaque white and dark brown colors. This material doesn't require any metallic or chatoyant additions to shine, the quality of the resin provides a gorgeous luster when polished. This is a top tier acrylic from Erinoid, on par with Omas, Delta, and Conway Stewart materials we've featured in the past.

The bodies and caps are fully-machined in-house, and each piece is then taken through a multi-step wet-sanding and polishing process with a final soft-wheel technique that brings out the shine. Select from a variety of Makrolon or aluminum grip sections to customize your pen and a variety of polished steel nibs. Each pen ships with a Schmidt K5 converter and two black Monteverde ink cartridges in our recyclable packaging.
