| The Conklin Pen Company was established in 1898 in Toledo, Ohio, USA, and is regarded as one of the most significant and innovative manufacturers from the golden era of fountain pens. Based on the original designs of earlier models, all Conklin pens are hand manufactured by artisans dedicated to producing writing instruments worthy of their legendary name. Conklin pens are valued by collectors and pen enthusiasts throughout the world. The new Conklin Herringbone series combines the vintage appeal with modern bold style and elegance. The unique Herringbone pattern itself is achieved by using a very precise computerized engraving machine to cut the deep pattern on airplane-grade aluminum. This elegant pattern, reminiscent of the Conklin crescent shape, is seen underneath a special translucent colored acrylic and coated with several layers of epoxy for protection and brightness. The coin atop the cap touts a relief of the Conklin Est. 1898 logo. The back of the crown is engraved with the Herringbone model name. The heavy chromium clip also is engraved with the legendary Conklin trademarked name and font and the center ring is engraved with the Conklin C surrounded by four Conklin crescent shapes on each side. This Conklin rollerball pen is capped and available in five colors: Deep Sea Blue, Golden Yellow, Slate Grey, Spring Pink, and Sunrise Orange. Each Conklin pen is sold in a luxury blue gift box with satin lining. Buy it for yourself or as a gift. The legend of over a century lives on! |
