Esterbrook Fountain Pen Estie GT - Honeycomb
This Estie series, the nickname for Esterbrook, is a tribute to the brand and its history. The Estie series exudes a sense of nostalgia of the 1930s, a time when fountain pens were an integral part of communication for most people.
As the waning days of summer give way to the changing season, the Honeycomb is a tribute to the prismatic beauty of a light-filled Honeycomb. Honey is as old as history itself. Used for more than 8000 years by ancient civilizations as a gift to the Gods, archaeologists excavating Egypt’s famous pyramids discovered tombs that contained still-edible 3000 year-old honey. Bees also know the magic of crystallized honey, storing and using it for food as fall arrives and winter approaches. The Estie Honeycomb is flecked with the colors of rich amber, golden sunsets, and is reminiscent of the rainbow of rustling leaves underfoot. Join us in welcoming the fall with this newest addition to the Estie range.
The fountain pen is equipped with a #6 JoWo steel nib. The Estie fills via standard international cartridge or converter (included).
Note: JoWo is transitioning their nib designs from the old scroll pattern to a more simple design. Stock is currently mixed; what you receive may not necessarily match what is photographed.

In 1858, entrepreneur Richard Esterbrook in Camden NJ founded his pen company under the trademark Esterbrook Pen Company, which quickly became one of the largest and most beloved pen makers in the world. At its peak, Esterbrook was the largest pen manufacturer in the United States with 600 employees.
It is therefore not surprising that much of American history has been written and created with Esterbrook pens. US Presidents Abraham Lincoln and Lyndon B. Johnson signed legislation with their Esterbrook pens.
Famous Disney artist Carl Banks brought Donald Duck to life with an Esterbrook No 356. Peanuts creator Charles M. Schulz used the No 914 for all of his comics. Meanwhile, millions of students have grown up learning to write with Esterbrook pens, aided of course by visionaries and artists using Esterbrook.
Today, Esterbrook resides 120 miles north of his original home at Kenro's headquarters in Mineola, NY.
