Noticeable variations in tone and texture are part of the design, enhancing the aged, well-worn appearance. To achieve this effect, BENU used an Giudaic Bitumen solutiontraditionally applied by masters in painting and decorative arts to create an aged, patinated look. The solution consists of natural resins and oils and is safe to use, though it may carry a faint, characteristic scent similar to bitumen, which will dissipate over time.All 3 pens have a Schmidt #5 stainless steel nib in Fine.
It comes with a blue standard international short ink cartridge. You can also fill the whole barrel with ink to use as an eyedropper pen with a larger ink capacity. A mini standard international converter (such as the Kaweco foldable converter) is available for purchase separately.
