About: The Masque Fountain Pen – Resin Edition
About the Masque Fountain Pen
A fountain pen should do more than put ink on paper. It should feel comfortable in the hand, perform with consistency, and inspire you every time you begin writing. For collectors, it should also tell a story through thoughtful craftsmanship and timeless design. The Ferris Wheel Press Masque Fountain Pen was created with exactly this philosophy in mind, offering a premium writing experience that balances everyday practicality with refined aesthetics.
Crafted from high quality resin and accented with plated brass trims, the Masque Fountain Pen brings together the elegance of the Masque design with a lightweight construction that feels effortless during long writing sessions. The Masque silhouette was intentionally designed to be flexible, serving as a platform for future storytelling through customised components, finishes, and print techniques, all while retaining its original balance and writing feel.
Designed for writers, artists, and collectors alike, the Masque celebrates the simple pleasure of putting pen to paper.
Designed for Everyday Writing
The Masque Fountain Pen has been developed for people who enjoy writing every day.
Its lightweight resin body feels balanced and comfortable, making it well suited to journaling, note taking, correspondence, planning, and creative writing. Weighing just 20 g, the pen is carefully engineered with most of its weight biased toward the front, providing excellent nib control during writing. When the cap is posted, the balance shifts to an almost perfect 50-50 distribution, creating an exceptionally comfortable writing experience.
This thoughtful balance allows the pen to become a dependable companion throughout the day.
Crafted From High-Quality Resin
Resin has long been appreciated in premium fountain pen design for its combination of beauty, durability, and comfort.
The Masque Fountain Pen is carefully crafted from high quality, durable resin that offers a smooth, refined finish while remaining lightweight enough for everyday use. A brass grip section provides additional balance and durability, while plated brass trims add subtle contrast and elevate the overall appearance, creating a writing instrument that feels sophisticated without becoming overly formal.
The result is a fountain pen that feels equally appropriate on a writing desk, in a notebook cover, or carried wherever inspiration appears.
A Smooth and Reliable Writing Experience
Every Masque Fountain Pen is fitted with a high quality two tone, gold plated No. 6 stainless steel nib (0.45 mm) designed to deliver a smooth, controlled writing experience.
The nib glides comfortably across the page, providing consistent ink flow that makes everyday writing feel effortless. Whether you're writing quick notes or spending hours with a journal, the pen offers dependable performance that encourages you to simply enjoy the act of writing.
A standard international converter is included, allowing you to fill the pen with your favourite bottled fountain pen inks straight away. The writing experience is designed to feel intuitive from the very first page. Each No. 6 nib is fully interchangeable with every other Ferris Wheel Press No. 6 nib, making maintenance simple while allowing writers to customize their writing experience over time.
Thoughtfully Designed Details
Beautiful writing instruments are defined by their details.
Every element of the Masque Fountain Pen has been considered to create a fountain pen that feels refined from every angle.
