The first Mirage
Blue Mirage was the first colour in the 326 line. Its deep, layered blues swirl with lighter streaks, like moonlight scattered on dark water. Every pen is unique, because each resin blank is poured and turned individually.
What is the Laban 326?
The Blue Mirage 326 takes the proud, stately profile of the Laban 325 and remixes it with bespoke, handcrafted resin from Carolina Pen Company. Jonathon Brooks is famous among pen makers for his vivid, layered blanks, and the Blue Mirage colourway brings his work to an accessible, everyday fountain pen.
Nib and filling
Under the cap of the Blue Mirage is a size #6 Jowo nib from Germany, gold-plated to match the trim and engraved with '3952', the height of Mount Jade in Taiwan. The Blue Mirage 326 accepts standard international cartridges and comes with a converter, so it is ready for bottled ink.
Styling the Blue Mirage
Blue and gold is a timeless pairing, and the ivory accents keep the look fresh. Fill it with a classic blue, a blue-black or a shimmering navy ink.
