A Mini Pen for your Big Ideas 💡

As you may know, I designed the Lumos as an answer to disposable pens. One of the biggest culprits is the humble biro, of which the unfathomable number of 100 Billion now reside in landfill!

In a Nutshell:

• Compatible with all 11 tips.
• Comes with my favourite 0.3 writing tip which is amazing for drawing too!
• A dinky 95mm long which also saves on any extra material & resource to make a full size pen.
• Designed to last a lifetime.
• Mix & Match colours! You can choose a different lid and body colour :)
• Comes in beautiful gift worthy packaging.

Measuring 95mm uncapped & 83mm capped, this little pen not only serves as the perfect pocket friendly package, but also cuts down on any extra material to make a full length pen, taking even fewer resources to produce.
    Each pen features a reservoir that holds up to 2.5ml of ink, ensuring that it lasts for an extended period before needing a refill. When the time comes, refilling is a breeze. You can top it up with any fountain pen ink color you like, including waterproof pigment ink. The choice is yours, and you can unleash your creativity without limitations.

    As standard all Lumos Minis comes with a 0.3 durable and smooth writing tip (shown on the sage green pen), which once you try it, you won't be able to put it down. It's perfect for writing as well as illustration and adds extra touch of joy to your creative process.


      The mini Lumos pen is compatible with 11 professional interchangeable tips, crafted by specialists in Japan. These tips include fineliners, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5, 0.8, and 1.0, as well as 2mm chisel, bullet, and brush felt-tips. Whether you're working on intricate details or bold strokes, there's a tip to suit every artistic need.

        What ink can I use?

        - All nibs will work with all but the most experimental fountain pen inks (think shimmer + iridescent). I've tried a LOT and I'm yet to find one that doesn't work well. I'd encourage you to experiment and find the inks that work best for you!

        Pigment Ink for fountain pens can be found here.

        Calligraphy Ink has an acrylic binder which will block the Pen

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

        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.

        The Single Lumos has one tip and one ink reservoir which is double the Duo's reservoir size.

        What's the difference between the Lumos and other refillable technical pens? (E.g. Rotring Isograph and Copic Multiliner).

        Great pen!

        As a fountain pen user, I have to say, this is pretty slick! I love the ease of use, minimal cleaning, and most importantly, being able to use all the different inks I've collected over the years without hassle. The mini is a tad small for me, though. Great if you need an everyday carry pen in your pocket, but I wish I had gotten the standard Lumos. Overall, fantastic product!

        Amazing writing experience (teacher and left handed)

        I love my mini Lumos. It was easy to fill and wrote instantly. The writing experience is smooth and reliable. Being left handed I tend to smudge fountain pens but this hasn’t smudged yet. I’ve put it under some testing too as I’m a teacher marking 60+ books during the lesson and needed to easily pick up, write and go.

        My only downside is, I wish the lid was metal as the plastic doesn’t feel as nice as the pen. I also found unscrewing the pen to refill tricky at times as I ended up unscrewing the nib area instead. I ordered the black lid (I have regrets) as the purple or sage I wanted was out of stock.

        Lastly, I wish I’d bought the bigger one for school. This is a dream to have for slipping in my bag and on the go, but I prefer the hold and weight of a bigger pen. I will be buying the larger.

        Oh! And the leather grip is so soft and lovely and I can imagine will patina nicely over time. I wish the pen could be engraved.
