Sapphire Demonstrator Fountain Pen

The swirling and shimmering colors of the Opus 88 Sapphire Demonstrator fountain pen look like stars suspended in a night sky, framed by gemlike sapphire blue endcaps. It's a large pen with a matching large ink capacity that will let you write uninterrupted for hours on end. It has an eyedropper filling system and a shutoff valve to help prevent leaking. Unscrew the blind cap at the end of the pen when you're writing to allow ink to flow, and tighten it up when you're traveling to shut off the ink supply. The body of the pen is made of smooth resin with metal accents. The screw-on cap cannot be posted.

Staff pick! Veronica says: "I don't normally gravitate to writing with larger pens but this one is both gorgeous and has a smooth writing feel to it. I was instantly captivated by the shimmery pen body that has a luminous quality to it. The black metal accents and nib tie the whole look together."
