The Winston Blue Stardust is a truly eye-catching fountain pen, with its mesmerising deep, speckled blue background perfectly set off by elegant gold accents. The barrel tapers slightly towards the end, while the cap boasts a gently rounded top. Weighing in at a substantial 66 grams, it offers a satisfying heft that speaks of fine craftsmanship.
The Winston series is filled using a bottle of ink, thanks to its captive converter. Simply unscrew the blind end of the barrel to reveal a gold-plated, knurled top that you turn to fill the pen with ink. Additionally, the pen is adorned with 9ct gold rings – a narrow ring at the barrel end, a wider, hall-marked band at the nib section, and two narrow rings on the cap for an extra touch of luxury.
Named in honour of Sir Winston Churchill, the Conway Stewart Winston is a beautifully built pen that stands out in a crowd, yet stays true to the classic style of a vintage Conway Stewart design. If you prefer a lighter pen, a Cartridge/Converter version is available at no extra charge – please see the 'Filling Mechanism' tab below for further details.
Each pen comes in a Conway Stewart black leather presentation box, which also serves as a stylish showcase stand for your desk.
Pens are handmade to order, so please allow up to 28 days for delivery.
