Sailor 1911 Standard Demonstrator Light Silver Fountain Pen

Sailor 1911 Standard Demonstrator Light Silver Fountain Pen

Its barrel, cap, and grip section made of transparent PMMA resin, which allows for viewing its interior and, consequently, checking the ink level regardless of whether cartridges or a converter are being used, make the Sailor 1911 Standard Transparent Light Silver fountain pen a fascinating "demonstrator" writing instrument, complementing its appearance, in this case, with shiny nickel-chrome-plated metal trim. A highly attractive aesthetic proposal for a writing pen that also stands out for its modest dimensions, which correspond to the medium or "standard" size of this collection and make this stylograph a magnificent option for everyday use and for long writing sessions, avoiding the possible fatigue generated by larger fountain pens.

Regarding the collection to which this fountain pen belongs, it's worth noting that the 1911 line is, along with the Professional Gear, one of the two flagships of this famous Japanese brand. Its design exudes classicism from all sides and is distinguished by its characteristic tapered or "torpedo" profile, with rounded ends and a gentle curvature generated by the slight decrease in diameter as we move towards the head and base. This delightful image is chosen for a collection named after the Sailor company's founding date and which, over time, has expanded its offering with the addition of versions of different sizes ("Standard" and "Large"), models such as the 1911 Realo, equipped with an integrated piston loading system instead of the usual cartridge or converter, or a host of finishes that have been enriched with innovative materials or decorative techniques such as maki-e.

The nib of the Sailor 1911 Standard Demonstrator ST is crafted from solid 14-karat gold with a rhodium plating for a chromatic harmony with the silvery tone of its ornate details. Its engraved decoration includes the brand's signature anchor logo, a reference to the purity of the gold used in its crafting, and a beautiful border with curved and interlaced motifs that runs around its entire perimeter. As is well known, Sailor nibs are crafted by expert craftsmen in the company's Japanese plant and are distinguished by their generous flow, smoothness, reliability, and, in this particular case, the abundance of available nibs, including extra fine (EF), fine (F), medium-fine (MF), medium (M), broad (B), Zoom (Z), and Music (MS). (NOTE: Selecting the special Zoom and Music nibs entails a slight increase in cost and, for reasons beyond our control, may result in an increase in delivery time.)

As all fountain pens in the 1911 series, the Sailor Standard Transparent ST fountain pen is presented in an elegant gift box.
