Kaweco PISTON SPORT AL Starter Set Bordeaux/Gold
A classic with a festive touch. The Piston Sport AL arrives in a bordeaux anodised aluminium finish with gold trims, an elegant combination that feels velvety in the hand. It is a piston-filler fountain pen, made for anyone who wants to start writing with bottled ink or give a complete set as a gift.
Anodised aluminium and gold trims
The bordeaux anodised aluminium body is durable and premium to the touch, and pairs with the gold finishes for an elegant character. Its weight and diameter are balanced so your hand does not tire during long writing sessions.
Piston filling
The piston mechanism draws ink straight from the bottle into the internal reservoir, with no cartridges or converters. A transparent window lets you check the ink level at any time, and refilling is quick and clean. It works with many inks, as long as they are sold in glass bottles.
Compact like every Sport
At about 10.5 cm closed and 12.7 cm with the cap posted on the back, it is the smallest piston-filler pen relative to its ink capacity. It fits in any pocket and suits travel, note-taking or comfortable writing for hours.
Choose your nib
It comes with a gold-plated steel nib in five widths: EF (extra fine), F (fine), M (medium), B (broad) and BB (extra broad). If this is your first fountain pen, the M is the most balanced choice. The nib is exchangeable, so you can swap it later.
