Waterman Carene Contemporary Blue and Gunmetal
With its beveled end cap, the Carene Contemporary Blue and Gunmetal maintains the same unique shape as the other Carene pens. This pen combines modern nautical design with the colors of the ocean. Smooth blue resin contrasts with textured white metal to create a pen that is a delight to hold in the hands.
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.
This Carene fountain pen 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 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 Cursive Italic and Left Oblique - see our nib customizations page for more information.
Additional Carene nib units are available for individual sale and are easily interchangeable at home - see our Waterman nibs page for more details.
Each pen is packaged in an attractive Waterman gift box.
