Pilot Capless Fountain Pen Carbonesque Black

Pilot Capless Fountain Pen Carbonesque Black

Pilot's famous retractable fountain pen in a contemporary style. Black with rhodium-plated trim and rhodium-plated 18k gold nib.. Although known as the Carbonesque in Europe due to the similarity of the finish with (faux) carbon-fibre trim on some cars, this finish is actually known as the Kasuri in Japan. Kasuri is a textile dyed with a resist technique to create the simple patterns reflected in this pen.

Use IC50 ink cartridges or bottled ink using the supplied converter.

All nib widths in stock for immediate despatch - and we are pleased to announce that all nib grades now ship with rhodium finish as we have managed to source supplies of fine and broad rhodium nibs from Pilot.

Capless
In 1964 Pilot's engineers created many new products to celebrate the Tokyo Olympics. The greatest of their achievements was the Pilot Capless fountain pen.

Known as the Vanishing Point in the US, the Capless is 'the perfect combination of luxury and technology'. A simple cap-end push-button withdraws the nib into the body, closing an air-tight seal behind it to seal the nib and prevent it from drying out.

The Capless can be used with ink cartridges and is also supplied with a converter to allow it to be used with bottled ink. Available in a range of finishes, including the prestigious Namiki Raden, all come supplied in a luxury gift box.

We are able to offer a choice of fine, medium or broad nibs - these days the medium nibs are less fine than they used to be and more in line with a typical European medium. Fine is exceptionally fine - being equivalent to a Pilot G-Tec-C4 0.4mm rollerball!

Pilot are not well known in the UK for their fine pens, but are considered by experts to be of exceedingly high quality. Pilot-Namiki nibs are held in the same esteem as Pelikan, Waterman and other high-end manufacturers. Our many customers for this pen attest to the supreme quality of writing and the high level of practicality offered by this pen.

NEW - Due to demand we are now able to supply replacement fine, medium and broad nibs in both gold and rhodium finish.
