Esterbrook Estie Fountain Pen Gift Set - Sea Glass/Gold
This gift set comes with a navy blue canvas pen sleeve, pocket notebook, and ink cartridges, along with an Esterbrook Estie Sea Glass Fountain pen in Fine! Perfect for gifting... to yourself or a friend!
This comfortably balanced Estie Sea Glass, part of the regular lineup, is offered in a fountain pen with gold-plated trim. The material is blended and turned acrylic with a Sea Glass mix of colors and a highly-polished finish. A sleek clip provides a clean accent for the cap and slides easily into a shirt pocket. A cushion cap closure provides a secondary seal to ensure a wet point. Finally, the fountain pen is equipped with a #6 JoWo steel nib. The Estie fills via standard international cartridge or converter (included).
Note: JoWo is transitioning their nib designs from the old scroll pattern to a more simple design. Stock is currently mixed; what you receive may not necessarily match what is photographed.
“The sea once it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever.” -Jacques Cousteau
Timeless takes time.
And so it is with the coveted coastal treasures that wash ashore during low tides all over the world, known as sea glass. Shaped over many sunrises and sunsets, these bits of colored glass drift for as many as two hundred years, weathering storms in the salt water, tossing and turning, Mother Nature’s own polishing that gives them their characteristically smooth, frosted texture.
Prominent in the Northeastern United States, beaches along the shores of New Jersey and New York can be found teeming with these heirlooms and artifacts of whiskey and spirits, trinkets, medicine bottles, dinnerware, jam jars, old taillights and if fortune finds you, a piece of an antique ink bottle.
First used decoratively at the turn of the last century, beachcombers seek out these little gems giving credence to the statement that one man’s trash is another man’s treasure. A bounty of colors ranging from amber to green, black to pale pink and clear frost to the rarest turquoise blue, make sea glass a highly collectible commodity.
