The Brush Fountain Pen takes its namesake and familiarity from the contoured silhouette of an artist's paintbrush; drawing parallels to the ferrule, traditionally a metal section that holds the bristles of a brush. This shape was designed for good balance in-hand, while remaining comfortable over a long period of time. The delicate etchings on the grip are influenced by the mechanical components of Ferris Wheel Press’s vintage printmaking equipment: the flywheel of their 1912 Pearl letterpress, the type hammers of their Underwood typewriter, and the ruler on their cast iron paper guillotine.
