Description
After our 'Akkerman Orange' fountain pen, they created a new 'Akkerman Exclusive' pen in collaboration with Kaweco. This resulted in their new edition of the AL-Sport, called the Kaweco AL-Sport 'Blue Eclipse'!
The Blue Eclipse has a deep dark blue color, which is almost black under certain light conditions. When you expose the pen to more (sun)light, the blue color will show more. The pen has a matte finish, and just like their Akkerman Orange, it comes with a black nib and finial.
Different from the Akkerman Orange is that their branding text is not printed onto the cap of the pen, but 'Akkerman Amsterdam' is engraved into the cap this time.
The pen has a limited production of 500 pieces, and is exclusively available at P.W. Akkerman Amsterdam!
