Is it just me, or does a fountain pen sound like a thing of the past: can you even use it for anything than writing love letters? Who are we, the Brontë sisters?
Some say dated, but we say timeless! Because once you find a fountain pen that works for you, the act of writing becomes something you look forward to. The truth is, fountain pens are not that complicated: if a pen sits comfortably in your hand and the nib doesn’t leave blotches but makes your writing flow seamlessly, you know you have found a good one.
The ION pen is a simple and elegant fountain pen that might be the perfect back-to-school accessory for the fall. The latest ION XL is a new take on the original ION. This new version of the iconic pen is beautifully executed: it comes in stainless steel and looks incredible on any office desk.

Not For The Faint Hearted
The maker of this smooth and elegant pen is Charles Lethaby, known as the creator of the world’s first fully interchangeable stationery brand.
