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 a joyous blue, Feathered Flight, this small batch run is a limited edition and 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 motifs:

Princess Patch, our heroine rides on the back of one of her brothers, looking determined as ever to succeed in her goal.
Hand-knit cardigans fly through the air, ready to be plucked by feathered brothers.
In the scuttle and flurry of feathers, Patch has lost her knitting needles. Can you spot where they have gotten to?
The sun hits the feathers in such a way they glow a rosy pink, which is inspired by the pink duochrome shimmer.

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
