Platinum Preppy Fountain Pen – Violet

Since its launch in 2007, Platinum’s Preppy fountain pen has become one of the most popular entry level fountain pens available today with 10 million pens sold worldwide! It’s easy to see why this is a popular choice as a first fountain pen for so many. With its approachable, friendly and colorful design, and Platinum’s own “Slip and Seal Mechanism” that employs a spring in the cap to force an air tight closure around the nib, thus preventing ink from drying out in this fountain pen for up to a year, this pen is a logical choice for students and for anyone who might be curious about fountain pens but worried about having to deal with fountain pen maintenance. Preppy is easy to write with, comfortable to hold and low pressure for a first time fountain pen user.
