"Platinum was founded in 1919 in Tokyo, Japan, by Shunichi Nakata and has grown into one of the country’s most respected fountain pen manufacturers. Known for precision engineering and continuous innovation, Platinum produces many of its nibs in-house and is recognised for its high-quality 14k and 18k gold nibs. The brand is also known for practical innovations such as the Slip & Seal cap mechanism, designed to prevent ink from drying out inside the pen. Popular models such as the #3776 Century, President, Izumo and the classic starter Preppy series highlight Platinum’s range, from accessible everyday writers to refined gold-nib fountain pens. The company also produces a wide variety of inks, including the highly regarded Carbon Black pigment ink and the color-changing Classic iron gall series."
Amazing pen only matched by the staff behind Pen Venture!
Despite ordering internationally, their team made the entire experience feel personal and genuinely appreciated. The attention to detail and the hand written note, lovely!
The pen itself is exceptional. It writes like it punches well above its weight class and has genuinely changed the way I look at modern fountain pens. An outstanding writing instrument backed by equally outstanding customer service. Highly recommended!
