The Conklin Pen Company is recognized as being one of the first companies to add the feature of true mobility to daily writing. In 1923, the Duragraph model was launched, and shortly afterward was considered to be ‘the definitive’ pen. The model was named by combining the words, durable and graph to equal Duragraph. Created to last as an heirloom to serve many generations, the Duragraph is offered with a lifetime guarantee, and brings a fresh, modern style to the timeless oversize flat top design. Crafted from quality handmade resins, the Duragraph is substantial in size, yet not so large to be unwieldy in the hand. The cap top is embellished with the Conklin Est. 1898 logo and the cap band is engraved with the famous Duragraph model script font with three Conklin crescent logos on either side of the model name. The cap top mounted clip allows the pen to sit low in the pocket, making this model a more practical choice for everyday use. The fountain pen is available in a choice of nib grades, ideal choice for your individual handwriting style uses international cartridges or converter (supplied), and the ballpoint refill accepts Parker style ballpoint refills. Each Conklin fine writing instrument is housed in a luxury gift presentation box lined with rich satin.
