It can write with various thicknesses and it's pleasant!

The crooked nib of fountain pen was produced in Western Europe. However, it rooted in China with the culture of Chinese character, which is the representation of an ideogram. It is because a Chinese character itself has a meaning, so the thickness, thinness and strength of lines were required for each character.

In China, painters also used fountain pen regularly and it has become the indispensable item, which can express various lines by one. You can find it quite obvious if you write, various thicknesses of characters can be expressed.

Moreover, you had to lean old fountain pen by 45 degrees. However, by making the nib curved instead of pointed, this fountain pen extends angle restrictions and anyone, who has a peculiarity in writing, can use it.

The reason why fountain pens are detached in the present age is the pressure a writer puts on his pen when writing. The young people tend to write strongly because they get used to use automatic pencils or ballpoint pens. In other words, the old fountain pens with unique elasticity and the pressure on the pens don't fit.

If power is put on a fountain pen, the nib will widen beyond necessity and it will break in the end. By making a point of contact with paper into the surface instead of a point, the pressure could be distributed.

We hope that "DECO PEN" would be taken in your ordinary life as "the fountain pen like ballpoint pen".



Finding yourself

The relish of a fountain pen is expression of your own characters. The reason why so many lovers like it is the substance of the nib.

The mineral called Iridosmine is used in the nib of "DECO PEN". It is also attached to the nib of high-grade fountain pens but "DECO PEN" can be offered at a low price. Iridosmine ranks the second hardest mineral after diamond. Iridosmine protects a nib and it excels in suppressing friction to the minimum. And the nib changes so that having used it for a long time may gradually suit its writing angle. The more you use it the feel of writing becomes better. This is the pleasure, which cannot feel with other pens. If you continue using one particular fountain pen it will get used to your hand. In the end, "DECO PEN" will become the best brand, which cannot be replaced with money.


In use

If a nib gets dirty or it is left without using during a fixed period, it will become easy to get inner ink blocked. If a cap is removed suddenly or a shock is given, it becomes good beyond necessity and the ink will blot. Take a great care of it when using it. Keep in mind that it will cause failure if a fountain pen is dropped or is used not in writing.

Cartridge type

  1. Remove the main part of the cover.
  2. Remove the axle, which is an ink tank, and insert straightly toward the main axle.

Maintenance and storage

If a nib becomes dirty or it is left without using during a fixed period, inner moisture will evaporate in dryness or air and it will become easy to get ink blocked. In that case, draw out an ink tank, and wash a nib with water, or dip in lukewarm water one whole day and night. The blur of ink or when it stops coming out, ink could have become hard. But don't think it's broken, just try washing first. It should be fixed. Moreover, inner ink would expand and become easy to leak if the temperature of the air goes up unusually. So, be careful when you put the pen into your pocket.
