Detail
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.
In practical terms, Samhain marks the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter. In more spiritual terms, it's seen as one of the times of the year when the boundary between the physical world and the 'otherworld' is blurred, and has given rise to countless traditions and festivals designed to appease the spirits.
The pen's artwork features skeletal designs on the barrel and cap of the pen along with splashes of colour and lit candles throughout.
Each pen has been lovingly handmade and hand painted with a series of multicoloured layers. This process takes up to 5 days to complete and results in the pen's impressive depth of colour. Please note though, that as these are all hand-painted, the designs may differ a little from pen to pen. So each pen is completely unique.
It comes with a #6 Schmidt stainless steel, iridium-tipped nib which is gold-plated and available in a range of sizes. Each pen is numbered with only 50 pens available, so don't wait!
Refill using short international standard sized cartridges. The barrel on this one is a little too short for standard sized converters, but the Kaweco mini piston converter is a good option instead.
