Matte Purple is rich and creative, with a smooth matte finish that feels lovely in the hand. It is a confident choice for anyone who likes their tools to stand out.

Pocket-sized, full-sized writing

Closed, the Matte Purple Axis is just over 11cm long, so it slips easily into a jeans pocket, a small bag or a notebook loop. Post the cap and the Matte Purple pen extends to about 13.4cm, a comfortable length for writing; its magnetic cap closes and posts securely with no twisting.

Thoughtful details

A gear-shaped band at the middle of the Matte Purple Axis stops it rolling off a table, and the clipless design keeps the outline smooth. Inside the Matte Purple Axis is a German JoWo #5 steel nib that takes standard international short cartridges or a mini converter.
