Kaweco Bronze Sport Fountain Pen

Kaweco Bronze Sport Fountain Pen

So good, they named an Age after it. Mostly copper, but with added tin and other metals which made it the metal of choice for the old ‘uns about 5,500 years ago until replaced by iron around 3,000 years ago. But it is still widely valued for making bells, casting statues and marine engineering, amongst many other current uses. Including making pens.

This Kaweco edition is lovely. It looks fantastic, with an octagonal design and an oversized cap made of solid, untreated, CNC-machined brass, which will age and develop its own unique patina over time unless polished.

The Kaweco Sport was first designed in 1911 as a pocket fountain pen which could be carried everywhere yet becomes a standard-sized pen when posted, hence the slogan “small in the pocket, large in the hand”

It is hand assembled in Germany and comes in a Kaweco gift tin. The nib is made in Germany and comes in 5 nib sizes, from EF to BB.

A standard international ink cartridge is included. Accessories are available separately (see below).
