Timeless Black Aesthetic Meets Resilient Japanese Engineering
The Platinum Plaisir in Black is a high-performance metal body fountain pen designed for those who value both form and function. While many entry-level pens rely on plastic, the Plaisir is constructed from lightweight, aircraft-grade aluminum. Its deep black anodized finish provides a sophisticated, scratch-resistant surface that feels substantial in the hand, making it an ideal everyday carry fountain pen for professionals, students, and artists.
This metal body fountain pen is famous for its reliability, thanks to Platinum’s patented "Slip and Seal" technology. The innovative snap-on cap creates an airtight seal that prevents the nib from drying out for up to a year, even if left unused. Whether you prefer the precision of a Fine (.3mm) or the smoothness of a Medium (.5mm) stainless steel nib, you can trust this pen to provide a skip-free, effortless writing experience every time you put it to paper.
As a high-quality Japanese fountain pen, the Plaisir is built to last. It comes with one proprietary Blue-Black ink cartridge to get you started immediately. Because it is a fully refillable fountain pen, you can easily transition to bottled inks by purchasing a Platinum converter (sold separately). If you are looking for a beginner fountain pen that offers the durability of metal and the elegance of a classic black finish, the Platinum Plaisir is the perfect choice.
