Addison Mizner Model - “Emerald Isle” DiamondCast

Handcrafted fountain pen made from McKenzie Penworks’ “Emerald Isle” Silver Series Diamondcast with the Pen Smith’s Verde Green finials and section. The finish is polished to a high gloss, which enhances the brilliant glitter effect of the Diamondcast and real silver.

DiamondCast® Silver Series is a patent pending material made with Alumilite and a combination of real diamond and silver dust.

The Addison Mizner is smaller than the Palmetto.

The pen is based on 12 mm single start threads. The thread length has been calibrated to fully close the cap in slightly over two and a half turns. When closed, the cap and body have a straight contour through the middle, tapering towards the finials. The finials are flat with a slight round over of the edges. The cap sits approximately 1 mm proud of the barrel. The barrel is 76 mm in length, 12.5 mm at the widest diameter, tapering to 10.5 mm at the finial. The cap is 55 mm long, 14 mm in diameter, tapering to 12 mm. The capped length is 131 mm.

The section is 23 mm long, 10.5 mm at the widest diameter with an 9 mm pinch. It houses a Jowo #5 nib and can use a standard international ink cartridge or Schmidt K5 converter. This model has the caps threads in the section rather than the barrel. As a result, eydropper filling is not recomended.

The interior of the cap is step drilled to three different diameters. This creates a very low volume of air space resulting in more reliable starts on pens that have been sitting for a while. The cap is postable.

Although the pen is based on a specific design, “The Addison Mizner,” each item is individually crafted on a wood lathe. There are very slight differences in each pen’s exact measurements since every part is tested and adjusted for a custom fit. However, the pictured pen is the one you will receive.

The pen will ship uninked with a new Jowo #5, a Schmidt K5 converter, a color coordinated felt sleeve and a small sample of ink (colors will vary). A Diamondcast certificate will also be included. All threads will be lubricated with clear silicone grease.
