DESCRIPTION
Based on the style and shape of one of the most famous fountain pens ever made – the Onoto Magna of 1937 which is still acclaimed by many as the best fountain pen ever made –
this Xu Zhimo Pinstripe has a hallmarked sterling silver cap band bearing the signature and personal seal of the celebrated Poet, and comes with the sterling silver Onoto Chevron clip. Hold the Magna Classic and you will marvel at its perfect balance and how tactile it feels – it is also one of the most robust pens on the market today, thanks to its durable, high-density acrylic composition. The King’s College crest is carved into the sterling silver cap button, and a sterling silver barrel button finishes the overall luxury feel. The Xu Zhimo Pinstripe Pen is available in a Limited Edition of 1897.
