We are all trying to get away from plastic and this pen ticks most of the boxes. It is a traditional fountain pen with a lovely broad nib 1.1mm, and will make letter and list writing a joy to do. It is made from bamboo and the side can be personalised either with a name and a special date or how about with an inspirational quote?We do not supply the ink but original Quink or any fountain pen ink will do and no plastic cartridges to replace as it has a plunge filler - one bottle of ink will last for ages saving you money and doing a little bit to save the planet from yet more landfillPlease note that the filling component and the base of the pen are made from plastic but hopefully by having a filler and not relying on disposable plastic cartridges it fulfills its mission of not contributing to more plastic landfill waste.It measures 15cm x 1cm
