Lamy AL-Star Fountain Pen in Turmaline Special Edition

Named after one of the most colorful semi-precious gemstones, the Lamy AL-Star special edition of 2020 is bright with a colorful aqua blue finish called Turmaline. The anodized aluminum body and cap have a satin metallic finish that amplifies the rich color of this pen. A polished chrome metal wire clip attaches with ease to your pocket or pen loop. The AL-Star fountain pen takes its body shape and design from the ever-popular starter pen, the Safari. The aluminum finish adds a higher degree of distinction. The translucent, molded grip section guides fingers to their proper position while allowing a sneak peek into the inner workings of the pen. The LZ50 nib is a reliable performer with a smooth flow that tends to lay down a broader line than other Western-style nibs. While the AL-Star fountain pen only includes one blue ink cartridge to start, you may opt to fill the pen with bottled ink using the LZ24/LZ28 converter (sold separately). The cutout on the side of the barrel allows one to see the remaining ink in the pen. Please note that all Lamy pens are tested with Lamy blue ink and often have traces of the ink color on the feed and nib when shipped to customers.
