Benu Tessera Fountain Pen Ribbon Turquoise
The Tessera is a more understated pen from Benu, though still not what most brands would call understated. The pattern cut into the barrel and cap is designed to resemble 'tesserae' cubic tiles, made to stand out a little more with a combination of matte finish on the surface, with a polished finish inside the cuts.
Black Onyx finish stays fairly subtle, while other finishes feature contrasting colours on different parts, and embedded glitter, because Benu just can't resist.
Dimensions: 149mm long, weighs 26g. Screw-on cap can be posted. Uses standard 'international' cartridges or a converter.
BENU was created in January 2016 with the aim to "make writing instruments and desk accessories for those who prefer bold, bright colours and new designs that are playful, stylish and fun". The name BENU is inspired by the ancient Egyptian god associated with the sun, creation and rebirth and the Benu bird, which is one of the oldest known names of the phoenix, a majestic creature that is reborn throughout time. BENU pens are truly something different, they have a distinctive design and pronounced character with unique patterns and colour combinations.
Orders placed before 3pm Monday to Friday will normally be sent out the same day.
