Started with "This pen is glass!" but I have the mindset of a 12 year old, so went from "This pen is glass" to "This pen is" to "this penis" to "penis", so: THIS PEN DO BE MADE OF GLASS. J. Herbin has been around since the late 1700s, but the pen do be modern. J. Herbin est une entreprise française mais ce stylo est fabriqué en Chine. This pen do be sealed NIB/NWT. It do be a lovely shade of blue with a clear nib. 18cm in length but for you requiring MURRICA UNITS that's about 7 inches, a perfectly cromulent length IF you are not a size queen. If you have a sweetie who is a writer or journal-er, this would be a cool Valentine/Galentine/Friendtine day gift. *PRO TIP* -> DO NOT BUY INDIA INK to use with this pen! <- As a courtesy, I will include a small sample of ink to get you started. You can even pick the color! I have a J. Herbin goosequill pen for sale, and antique brass inkwell, both listed separately. Do be a bundler and make an offer to get a discount & save on shipping. NOTE: This do be just a side hustle for me but I don't play. I respect your money and the time it took to earn it - been there! Thank u for your trust in me! I only sell things I would buy myself and I aim to be the kind of seller I would want to buy from; I request the same courtesy from you as a buyer. TL;DR - DON'T BE A PEN IS Pet-free, Child-Free, Smoke-free, and 420-free home. Doesn't make me superior (it makes me boring AF), it's just some folks wanna know. I don't judge, u do u!
