GW D2 Fountain Pen in Moody Hues

The D2 line is an updated version of my older Diminuendo pens. The D2 features a cap and body that have a gentle taper running the entire length of both. Because the tail of the body is smaller than the previous Diminuendo, the cap can post much further down. Capped the pen measures 150mm long, while posted is just 5mm longer at 155mm, letting the bulk of the pen to rest nicely in the crook of your hand. 

If you enjoy light pens for extended writing sessions, the D2 is the perfect fit!

The pen is extremely light weight, coming in at just 15 grams (0.5 ounces) with the included JoWo #6 nib and Schmidt K5 converter. The largest diameters are only slightly different from one another, with the base of the cap measuring 14.6mm and the widest part of the body measuring 14.1mm. Because of how narrow the body diameter starts, there is barely even a step from the body to the threads.

The section, with a polished piece of aluminum trim for an added visual pop, is 25mm long with the widest diameter being 11.7mm. It pinches in to a comfortable 9.9mm. 

The pen is made with Alumilite polyurethane resin cast in-house.
