Waterman Carene Blue ST
The Waterman Carene Blue ST fountain pen with rhodium trim uses fluid lines and an intriguing shape to create modern elegance. Glossy blue lacquer seems to reflect like the surface of water, and silver trim adds to the mirror effect.
This pen has now been discontinued by Waterman - we have just a small number remaining in stock, after which no more will be available.
The Waterman Carene Blue ST fountain pen is made of high-quality lacquer over brass with rhodium trim.
Carène means "hull" in French, and the Waterman Carene fountain pen sports an elegantly streamlined design that suggests the sleek lines of a racing yacht. The smooth-writing 18k inlaid nib adds to the appeal of these writing instruments, which also offer excellent value for the price.
In French, "Carene" means to incline to one side, like a ship under sail. Looking at the Carene from a side view, you can see the way its uniquely tapered shape appears to mimic a leaning boat. The curvaceous spring-loaded rhodium clip adds to the feeling of motion.
The Carene can be filled using international size ink cartridges, such as the Pelikan and J. Herbin cartridges we carry, or can be filled with any bottled fountain pen ink using the included converter.
The Carene Blue ST is a mid-size pen that will be a comfortable fit for most users.
The 18k solid gold rhodium-plated inlaid nib is known for its smooth writing characteristics, and is imprinted with the Waterman trademark.
These 18k nibs are well-suited to customizations such as Architect's point, Stub, Cursive Italic, and Left Oblique.
Additional Carene nib units are available for individual sale and are easily interchangeable at home.
Each pen is packaged in an attractive Waterman gift box decorated with the Waterman logo.
