Care Instructions
  1. DO NOT post the cap onto your pen when writing. Our pen has been designed and balanced to write with the cap un-posted
  2. The threads of the cap are brass and risk damaging the lacquer if you post the cap
  3. Store pen vertically with the tip pointing upwards when not in use to minimize clogs; routine flushing and maintenance recommended, especially with sparkling inks

Filling your Bijou Fountain Pen

  1. Unwind the grip from the barrel of the pen to reveal the converter
  2. Pull the converter off of the grip assembly
  3. Clean your nib and converter by rinsing it in cold water until water runs clear
  4. If the pen has not been in use for a few weeks, you may need to submerge the nib for an hour to loosen up the ink
  5. Air dry the nib and converter and reassemble when fully dry
  6. Twist the end knob until the piston is fully depressed
  7. Submerge the entire nib into the ink, and SLOWLY twist the piston to draw the ink until the converter is fully extended
  8. It is normal to have some small air pockets at the top of the converter

New to fountain pens

I’m still pretty new to fountain pens. I really enjoy this pen. It’s a lovely pen. I would have been greatly helped by a little instructional paper included in the packaging because I was struggling with the pen writing initially. I didn’t know I needed to rinse the pen prior to use to get any machining oils off, so my first few pages were really choppy and difficult getting a nice flow from the feed, but it writers beautifully now. Big big fan. I’m not a fan of the velvet sleeves they come packaged in. They get lint all over the pen. Not a vibe, haha! I keep my pen in a leather pen sleeve I just happened to have. Much better. I’m too afraid to post the cap since I don’t want to scratch the lacquer. Not sure if that fear is founded.

New Go To Pen!

This has quickly become my new go to pen. The sleek design gives both simplicity and elegance and is used every day. Love the weight and feel of the pen and the designs on the nib and barrel.
