This Waterman's Charleston fountain pen finds its design roots in the 1940s Waterman's 100 Years Pen. With its art deco appeal, solid gold nib, and affordable price, the Charleston makes a great everyday writer and outstanding value in the world of quality fountain pens. The rhodium trim and plating on the nib appeals to those who prefer silver watches rather than gold.
The Waterman Charleston Ebony Black Chrome combines style and affordability in a writing instrument which can serve as an excellent introduction to the world of quality fountain pens. The over-all design of this pen, including the triple barrel band, is influenced by the classic Waterman's 100 Year Pen of the 1940s, while the rhodium trim and glossy black resin give it a briskly contemporary appearance.
The Charleston Ebony Black Chrome is a well-balanced mid-size pen that will be a comfortable fit for most users. The tapered cap and barrel add to both the style and comfort of this writing instrument.
The Charleston can be filled using international size ink cartridges, such as the Pelikan and J. Herbin cartridges we carry, or can be filled with your favorite bottled fountain pen ink using the provided converter.
Note the attention to fit and trim in the detail. The triple band design is a signature of the Charleston line.
The rhodium-plated clip forms a single streamlined unit with the cap end, which includes the Waterman logo stamped at the top. The 18k solid gold rhodium-plated nib is also imprinted with the Waterman trademark.
These 18k nibs are well-suited to customizations such as Architect's point, Stub, Cursive Italic and Left Oblique.
Each pen is packaged in an attractive Waterman gift box.
