Hello,

this has been a long project with a friend of mine who came with this idea and the design.

In Barcelona exist a group of friends who shares the passion for fountain pens, I am on of them and he is another member. We used to do our meetings at the beautiful building of Palau de la Musica Catalana, this pen tries to simulate one of the columns of the modernism coffe shop.

More information about this fantastic building here:

Palau de la Música Catalana

It is made from red japanese ebonite, white casein, green acrylic and brown german ebonite. The rose is made from enameled silver made for an artisan in Barcelona. it is faceted and it also has a gold nib from the 40s also made in Barcelona


Hope you like it.

A beautiful pen. It brings back memories of a Birthday treat. My wife took me to the Palau de la Musica Catalana on a vacation in Barcelona to hear Rodrigo's Concerto Aranjuez (one of my favorite pieces). What a beautiful setting.
I'm crazy about the architecture in Barcelona, lots of inspiration there. How lucky you are to live in such a beautiful city. When will see a Sagrada Familia pen?

Maybe one of the interior columns?
