Esterbrook Oversize Gold Rush Gena Nib Fountain Pen 

 Gena Salorino of the Custom Nib Studio in Los Angeles has created the first Esterbrook custom ground nib called “The Journaler” or the “Gena”. The custom nib is perfect for those who love to Journal or give their daily writing some flair. It’s a smooth and easy to use medium stub grind (ground originally from a medium nib), based on the vintage Esterbrook 9314M nib. You can experience the Gena nib on all Estie Standard and Senior (oversize) fountain pens for a $50 up-charge.

Esterbrook prospects for gold! Estie Limited Edition Gold Rush As Richard Esterbrook was setting up shop on the east coast in 1858, one of the most significant events to shape American history was just coming to a close. The Gold Rush brought 300,000 people from around the world to California, making San Francisco the central metropolis of the new frontier. Discovery of gold nuggets in the Sacramento Valley ten years earlier stoked the American dream, causing one of the first major gold rushes since the time of the Roman Empire. This sense of making one’s own way was not lost on the English Esterbrook, who was trying to make a better life for himself and his family by seeking prosperity in the United States. To celebrate the Gold Rush’s place in American history and honor Esterbrook’s own history, the Esterbrook Estie has been reimagined in two gilded limited edition colors, Prospector Black and Dreamer Purple. The fascinating finishes are created in high-quality resins embedded with swirling, glittery gold shimmer – no two are exactly alike! The Gold Rush Estie’s are available as Standard and Oversize gold-trim fountain pens, standard rollerball and the all-new Estie twist ball pen. The fountain pen carries the popular #6 Jowo steel nib in five regular point sizes. The Gold Rush Estie’s are limited in quantity and will be gone just as quickly as the gold boom!
