Description

Check out this stunning Galen Leather exclusive: the Kaweco Sport Fountain Pen. It's a beautiful demonstrator pen that has a tinted, violet-purple resin body and cap that's not only functional but aesthetically pleasing to the eye.

This has come about as a creative collaboration with Kaweco who are well known for their focus on beautiful utility and quality craftsmanship. And this is exactly what this limited edition Galen + Kaweco Fountain Pen is centered on. 

Following their iconic original 1935 octagonal design, this fountain pen can be described as 'small in the pocket, large in the hand.' The oversized cap arrangement creates a small closed pen but a full-length open pen. Closed, the Kaweco Fountain Pen is just 105mm long. Open, it is 133mm long.

Made from tough but exceptionally lightweight ABS Makrolon plastic, the Kaweco fountain pen features the Galen Leather and Kaweco logo in gold-colored metal on either end of the cap. The polished gold-plated stainless-steel nib is manufactured by Bock of Heidelberg. Kaweco fountain pens are refilled with standard international ink cartridges, such as those made by J Herbin or Kaweco. Available in various nib grades and colors. It's the kind of pen that pairs beautifully with one of our fountain pen friendly leather diaries or fountain pen cases.

Love this little pen!

I love pocket pens and I love purple so this is a win for me! Galen Leather Company is a wonderful company. Their attention to detail is top notch. This is my fourth Kaweco pen. I got the extra fine nib. It doesn’t disappoint. I also got the single pocket pen holder to carry it in and the craftsmanship is impeccable. Highly recommended. Hope they do more. Emerald green would be awesome!

Collectors Pen

I was super excited to snag the purple Galen x Kaweco Sport in a bold 1.1mm stub. It writes beautifully and it’s smooth as all get out! I upgraded to the piston filler and grabbed a gold clip to match the text on the pen. Of course, I also grabbed a purple single Kaweco Sport case from Galen and couldn’t be happier with the whole set up! Thanks to everyone at Galen Leather!!! Customer for life, here!
