How the Meridian pen is put together — body, nib and balance — without marketing theatre.

Meridian body

Body

A matte midnight-blue barrel with rose-gold rings. The section is shaped for a natural grip during longer writing sessions. Weight is distributed so the pen does not tip forward aggressively on the page.

The cap posts securely if you prefer to write with it attached; it also sits flat on the desk when set aside.

Nib

A rose-gold plated nib in a fine grade. The tipping is tuned for a consistent line on standard and better-quality paper. It is not a flexible calligraphy nib — it is meant for everyday prose and notes.

Ink flow is moderated through a standard feed; cartridge or converter use is supported depending on the unit supplied with your order.
