The BENU Pixie fountain pen is a shorty - just 91mm closed but 120mm posted, thanks to its oversize, screw-on cap, and weighs just 14g. It's constructed from acrylic resin and fitted with a Schmidt stainless steel #5 nib available in a range of sizes.
Royal Blue is - unusually for BENU - quite understated, and features a silver-coloured BENU logo stamped on the cap.
Refill using short international ink cartridges. The only converter that will fit, in order to take bottled ink, is Kaweco's Foldable Converter.
BENU was created in January 2016 with the aim to "make writing instruments and desk accessories for those who prefer bold, bright colours and new designs that are playful, stylish and fun". The name BENU is inspired by the ancient Egyptian god associated with the sun, creation and rebirth and the Benu bird, which is one of the oldest known names of the phoenix, a majestic creature that is reborn throughout time. BENU pens are truly something different, they have a distinctive design and pronounced character with unique patterns and colour combinations.
