Lumos Brass: Special Edition

Mirror the beauty of your creative practice with the Lumos Brass.

€117,95 Bundle & Save

A special edition, precision engineered, Lumos in Brass. I’ve always believed that the tools we use should bring us joy and reflect the quality of the work we create. It’s why I made the very first calligraphy pen for my wife Gemma all those years ago!

It’s an ethos I’ve held close as I’ve embarked on my mission to eliminate single-use pens, which led me to developing The Lumos - an elegant and infinitely refillable alternative to the fineliner. The Lumos has been a huge hit and I’ve been humbled by the fantastic feedback. That’s what inspired me to design this special edition, precision engineered, Lumos Brass.

About the Lumos Brass

The first step to making a standout pen is choosing the right material. For me, brass was the winner; it gives the pen a satisfying weight in the hand, and an impeccably shiny and smooth feel.

I drew inspiration from classic British design from cars to old transistor radios; their heritage and intangible soulful quality influenced the design and the smallest of details. Such as the beautiful finely knurled cap as well as the way in which the pen effortlessly closes with just the right amount of feedback in the hand. 

Meeting these exacting standards requires the ultimate in manufacturing tools and processes. Luckily there’s an expert team based just 20 minutes from my Studio, who use precision lathes that are no stranger to making the finest parts such as watch mechanisms and aerospace components.

Whether you’re looking for a tool to mirror the beauty of your creative practice, elevate your everyday work, or as a gift for an extra special occasion, I hope you find your perfect pen in the Lumos Brass.

      Brass requires some extra upkeep to keep it nice and shiny! Please see video on how to do this here.

      What ink can I use?

      The Lumos is compatible with dye-based Fountain Pen Inks, so long as they don’t contain particles (such as shimmer inks) or binders (like acrylic or shellac).

      Exception to the rule? We sell a splendid waterproof pigment ink (our own No.60 Fountain Pen Waterproof in Pigment Black). Or, if you want to splash out, Sailor Kiwa-Guro ink is a great option too.

      What are the differences between the Duo and the Single Lumos?

      The Single Lumos has one tip and one ink reservoir, which is double the Duo's reservoir size.
      The Duo Lumos allows you to have two different pens in one body, allowing you to easily change between nibs and ink colours on either side.

      Can I purchase replacement tips and reservoirs for my Lumos?
      Yes! Everything you need for your Lumos is listed below:

      Just perfect

      I really enjoy this pen.
      The ink runs so smooth.
      The changing of the various tips is so easy.
      And the pen itself looks just so nice.
      I am really happy to write with it every day.

      but yeah..
      I think I can never really use another pen - maybe thats the one downside ;-)
      Wouldn‘t the brass one and the black one be a super match!? :D

      I‘d also like to mention, that the costumer support is really good.
      All my questions were answered really fast.

      Stunning!

      Love this pen - I do a lot of note taking for my job, but occasionally enjoy writing as just something relaxing. The pen is very smooth, albeit a little quick for the nib to dry out, but a quick dap on the tongue sorts that out easily. It’s nice and heavy in the hand and feels very high quality. I got the butterfly rest to match which go wonderfully together. Treating myself to some more ink colours and reservoirs soon. I’d love to see some more of the pens in the ranges be released in solid brass - nice little brass Wren, full brass mechanical pencil, or a luxurious solid brass Studio Fountain Pen - I’d be buying them straight away!
