In collaboration with the Royal Air Forces Association, Conway Stewart has produced this stylish commemorative fountain pen.
Based on our popular silver Duro model, the art of the silversmith is shown superbly in the RAFA Commemorative pen.
The Duro is handcrafted from rods of solid sterling silver. A translucent crimson colored resin veneer is then applied by hand, allowing the silver beneath to shine through, creating a stunning visual effect.
The cap band is engraved with the legend ‘R.A.F.A.’ and the barrel features a commemorative inscription. The first edition of this series was presented to Air Marshall Sir Philip Sturley CB MBE BSc FRAeS, President of RAFA.
The RAFA commemorative fountain pen is limited to a worldwide edition of 250 pieces. The pens are converter cartridge and mounted with a large rhodium-plated solid 18 carat gold nib and housed in Conway Stewart’s luxurious Centenary packaging.
The RAFA Commemorative fountain pen is only available by order through Conway Stewart and the Royal Air Force. A substantial donation will be made to RAFA funds from the proceeds of this edition.
