Carene in French means “hull” of a boat. The streamlined design of Carene looks like the hull of a racing yacht.
The silver cap with engraved lines look like waves and the gold furniture complements both black
The 18k inlaid nib is a smooth writer.
At 33.4 gms and 5.69” it is a mid sized nicely balanced pen.
The spirit of waves, the hull of a boat and inspiration from the ocean inspired me to pair it with J Herbin 1670 Blue Ocean Ink.
It is a luxury to be indulged in, in terms of visual, tactile and writing quality. I am absolutely besotted by my Carene.
