Made for daily pages

One dip. Roughly a month of entries.

The question everyone asks first: how often will I have to stop and refill it? Less than you'd think. The reservoir holds ink by capillary action and feeds the tip steadily, so a single five-second dip covers about a month of daily journaling.

Based on 2-3 A5 pages a day - a morning page, a habit tracker and the day's log.

  • On journal paperA controlled fibre tip that stays crisp on everything from dot-grid to 80gsm - no ghosting, no bleed-through.
  • Any inkColour-code your months, moods and projects. Any dye-based fountain ink works, including waterproof pigment for entries that need to last.
  • Any angleJournal at a desk, curled on the sofa or propped up in bed. Press as hard as you like - the tip takes it.
  • When it wearsAfter years of daily entries you replace the tip, not the pen. Thirty seconds, and you're writing again.

A year in pages

A year of journaling, two ways.

Journal every day and disposables become a subscription to the bin. The Lumos does the same year on about a dozen five-second dips - and starts the next one good as new.

Incredible!

I wanted to just thank you for such a beautiful pen! I got a lumos and I've been running an experiment on how many pages I can write on one full reservoir, and so far I'm up to 21 pages with no sign of running out. What an incredible product. The balance and weight of the pen is perfect. Thanks again!

Amazing Pen!

I really love the lumos. It is so high quality- and feels like it looks. To write and letter with it (no matter if fine oder brush) feels really perfect, since it lays wonderful in your hand. I'm happy to start a new lettering adventure with my lumos! 🥳👏🏼

Most unique pen you’ll ever buy

I was skeptical at first. Ink? I fill? I thought what a mess this is going to be. Well I was wrong. Set up of one of the many nibs provided along with letting the ink “sponge” suck some up and I was ready to write in less than a few minutes. So far it’s been a stellar pen. Definitely the most unique pen you’ll likely ever own!

Before you ask

The four things journalers want to know

Do I need ink?

No, a 3ml mini ink is included to get you started. Once that's run out, a single 50ml bottle lasts most people a year or more.

Will it ghost or bleed?

No. The tip lays a controlled line without feathering, ghosting or bleed-through - on dot-grid, lined pages and even standard 80gsm paper.

Will it leak?

Ink is held in a fibre-filled reservoir, so there's no loose liquid to burst or spill. The perfect travel journal companion.

I'm left-handed.

No problem! The fibre tip writes at any angle and the ink dries quickly on the page – so no smudged entries as your hand moves across it.
