The Carousel Fountain Pen - Oinking Embers
Description
The Carousel is a joyous writing instrument that combines tactility and nostalgia in a lightweight body to create a charming experience with every single detail. The custom-ground steel nib is playful and agile, producing beautifully nuanced lines with its subtle flexibility. Available in both fine and medium weights, this nib is stamped with a galloping horse that dances to your every word.
Presented in an earthy brown, Oinking Embers, this small batch run is available only while quantities last.
Every Carousel fountain pen comes equipped with its own ink converter, ready to be filled and refilled all over again with your favourite Ferris Wheel Press Ink.

Once Upon a Design
Notable design details:
- To ensure the pigs’ plan goes off without a hitch, they’ve brought along all the tools they could possibly need - can you spot them all?
- Looks like the wolf fell for the pigs’ trap. Is that him coming down the chimney?
- Scurry along, town mouse. Go home, you won’t want to be caught out here later!
Care instructions
Filling/Changing Ink Colours:
- Unscrew to remove the barrel from the grip section and access the converter.
- Place the fountain pen nib fully into warm water. Flush the nib by twisting/untwisting the converter until the water runs clear.
- Allow 1 day to dry.
- Fill a new colour by fully submerging the nib and feeder into the ink, then draw the ink into your pen but twisting the converter until you’ve reached the top position.
Notes:
- For heavily saturated inks and darker tones, or clogged nibs, you may need to soak the grip/feeder in water overnight
- It is normal for some air bubbles to enter the converter when refilling ink
