Esterbrook Model J Fountain Pen

Esterbrook Model J Fountain Pen

As you may recall from my enthusiastic reviews of the Esterbrook JR Pocket Pen Fountain Pens, I’m a huge fan of that powerful pocket sized pen. I have it in almost every color Esterbrook makes. Now, with the super-sized, large-and-in-charge, big brother of a fountain pen, the Esterbrook Model J Fountain Pen draws me in immediately. Already owning the ebonite version in brown and Lotus Green, I’m so excited about the new additions to the line.

Above all, ebonite is renowned for its durability and tactile warmth. This serves as the perfect material for the Model J. Derived from hardened rubber, ebonite offers a unique writing experience, providing a comfortable grip and smooth writing surface. Its natural luster and rich colors enhance the aesthetic appeal of the pen, while its robust construction ensures longevity and reliability.

Embrace the classic allure and superior performance of ebonite with the Model J, a testament to Esterbrook’s commitment to craftsmanship and quality. Notably, these are available in three captivating colorways, Lotus Green, Violet, and Blackberry. These pens add a vibrant touch to your writing experience, combining elegance with modern flair.

The beloved colors of our compact JR model are now featured in the larger Model J format. This update pays homage to the 1950s Model J, a significant part of American writing heritage, by adapting these time-honored shades to meet contemporary preferences.

These updates reflect our dedication to craftsmanship and the evolving needs of our customers. Each pen in the Chatoyant Acrylics Series is a testament to our commitment to quality, combining traditional aesthetics with modern functionality. Meet these acrylics in Palm Green, Pumpkin Latte, and Capri Blue.

Finally, these take the same nib as the standard Esterbrook Estie – not the JR. Equipped with a JoWo size 6 gold plated nib, available in various sizes, including custom options, this pen promises an exceptional writing performance. We currently offer the “standard” options of extra fine, fine, medium, broad, and stub 1.1. However, feel free to email us about special ordering the other nibs.
