Tom Hessin Charles 1870 Gherkin Fountain Pen All Black - Broad is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
Broad nib option is special order, please contact us for details on lead time.
Inspired by London’s iconic Gherkin, this fountain pen celebrates one of the city’s most recognisable landmarks. The precision-engineered metal barrel reflects the building’s diamond-patterned glass façade, and it echoes Tom Hessin’s own diamond motif, creating an interplay of texture and light.
All Black pairs deep black lacquer with intricate legacy diamond detail. It’s offset by a British-made clip in black PVD, a bird emblem finial and a Tom Hessin logo band. The PVD black JoWo iridium nib gives a reliably smooth writing experience, and the screw-close cap gives a tighter, more reliable seal. It comes in a luxury Tom Hessin gift box and is backed by a two-year mechanical warranty.

- Precision-engineered metal barrel with legacy diamond detail
- Black lacquer finish
- British-made black PVD clip
- PVD black JoWo iridium nib in Fine, Medium or Broad
- Screw-close cap
- Bird emblem finial and Tom Hessin logo band
- Supplied with two black ink cartridges, an ink converter and range leaflet
- Luxury Tom Hessin gift box
