Conklin’s original Nozac (‘no sac’) piston-filling fountain pen was first produced in 1931, but had disappeared from the market by 1938. It was advertised as ‘the pen that winds like a watch’, as the end button was turned in order to draw ink up into the pen.
It hasn’t actually changed much in terms of mechanics, but Conklin has used modern technology and production methods to create a pen that is stylish in its simplicity, with beautiful marble-effect barrel finishes.
The Toledo Red barrel features shades of pearlescent dark red, maroon, blue and grey, and is stamped ‘Conklin Nozac – Made in Italy’. Chrome-plated grip area, cap and barrel ends.
Cap features a magnetic closure. Chrome-plated rocker pocket clip is inscribed with ‘Conklin’. Twist the end of the barrel anti-clockwise in order to empty, and then draw up ink by turning clockwise.
Bi-colour nib available in a range of sizes.
Comes with a refill.
Supplied in a luxury Conklin gift box.
All Conklin writing instruments are guaranteed for life against mechanical failure due to faulty workmanship or materials.
