Shape of Heart “Ivoire”̶ The Second Edition of a Fountain Pen with a Pair of Hearts
In 2022, Platinum Pen has released “Shape of Heart,” a special limited edition from the #3776 CENTURY series, which is enjoying a good reputation for the built-in “Slip & Seal Mechanism” that retains fresh ink for longer periods of time. Thanks to its growing popularity, Shape of Heart “Ivoire” will be newly released as the second edition. Just like the first model, it features two heart-shaped pieces created when punching out the breather hole in the nib, placed in a transparent dome on the pen’s finial with zirconia. While the heart-shaped cutouts are normally melted down and put back into making more nibs, the Shape of Heart fountain pen incorporates them into a pen’s design. The second edition features two heart-shaped 14 gold pieces applied with rhodium plating placed in the dome. The nib, clip and the metal parts are also embellished with a rhodium finish while the body is applied with blasting to give a white matte finish. The contrast with the overall luster of the pen further accentuates the dome of the crown, representing a design unique to the limited model, which is not available in the regular product lineup. The pair of heart-shaped pieces enclosed in the dome symbolizes the connection between partners, making it an ideal romantic gift for your loved one. *“Ivoire” is the French word for ivory.
