Description
Esterbrook x Bungubox Estie Kingfisher Fountain Pen
A flash of colour by the river. The Esterbrook x BUNGUBOX Estie Kingfisher Fountain Pen captures the jewel-like feathers of the kingfisher in swirls of deep teal, warm copper and soft black, set off by gold-plated trim.
BUNGUBOX is a much-loved stationery shop in Tokyo, and its collaboration with Esterbrook, the American pen maker founded in 1858, is inspired by the Japanese idea of kachofugetsu: the beauty of flowers, birds, wind and the moon. The Esterbrook Estie Kingfisher represents the bird.
A kingfisher in resin
The Esterbrook Estie Kingfisher is made from resin cast in the USA, with teal and copper tones that shift in the light like a kingfisher darting along a riverbank.
A nib with a secret
The gold-plated steel nib of the Esterbrook Estie Kingfisher is engraved with the Japanese character for 'bird', a lovely detail you notice every time you uncap the pen. We offer Extra Fine, Fine, Medium, Broad and Stub 1.1.
Filling
The Esterbrook Estie Kingfisher takes a standard international converter, included, or short international cartridges.
The Estie shape
The Esterbrook Estie Kingfisher has the Estie's classic, rounded shape with a screw cap and Esterbrook's signature clip. It is 149mm long capped, about 170mm posted, 13.3mm in diameter, and light at around 22 to 24g.
