LAMY AL-star Fountain Pen - sage (Special Edition)
Another special edition LAMY AL-star fountain pen color for 2024! The LAMY AL-star is the aluminum big brother to the LAMY safari. The green translucent triangular grip section makes it great for those starting out who have no idea how to hold a fountain pen, but it's used and loved by fountain pen lovers of all levels of experience.
This sage green anodized aluminum AL-star features an interchangeable black steel nib, which can be easily swapped out for another size, and matching black trim.
This fountain pen comes with a blue LAMY ink cartridge so you can get started writing right away. If you'd like to use bottled fountain pen ink, you can also purchase a LAMY Z28 converter.
Note: To ensure quality performance, LAMY tests their pens as a final step in manufacturing. If you happen to see any residual blue ink, rest assured that this is normal.
