Schaap -/- Citroen fountainpen (Dutch jewelers brand) 925 silver from the 80s
ParadoXDesign posted a topic in Fountain & Dip Pens - First Stop
Hi, this week I’ve received a rather dull pen, who, after a good cleaning with silverpolish, came out to be a very beautifel ugly ducklet. I did some research after the name on the box (schaap citroen) and emailed the company that I found online. It turned out to be indeed a “Schaap Citroen” fountainpen from the 80s, in near mint condition. I think I am the first person to put ink in it. The company stated it’s an exclusive pen they selled back in the 80s, made out of first quality silver (925). The irridium point writes like a charm, smooth and with an uninterrupted inkflow. It’s got a real heavy feel to it, but not too heavy. The cap closes neatly with a solid click and fits perfectly. The design is perhaps a bit spartan, but it’s got a stylish quality that appeals to me. Has anyone encoutered this kind of pen too perhaps? Happy holidays!!
