This BENU Talisman Tiger's Eye fountain pen features an orange and black resin base with holographic sparkles throughout. It has a silver Schmidt #6 stainless steel nib, an orange resin grip and accents, a silver clip, and pushes to post. It comes with a standard international converter and one long blue ink cartridge. You can also fill the whole barrel with ink to use as an eyedropper pen with a massive ink capacity.

From BENU:

Presenting three new stunning additions to our Talisman collection: Cat’s Eye, Hawk’s Eye, and Tiger’s Eye. Each unique fountain pen is dedicated to a popular quartz crystal renowned for its distinctive, natural phenomenon called “chatoyancy”. These minerals, highly sought-after for their optical illusions, have been surrounded by myths and legends for centuries.

We, therefore, considered the stones a perfect fit for our Talisman collection! Each pen is crafted in the corresponding mineral’s color with BENU’s signature splash of sparkles, and comes complete with a leaflet sharing the background story. BENU is thrilled to introduce their new designs, showcasing the mesmerizing beauty and symbolism of these remarkable stones.

We do our best to photograph the pens to show how they will appear in person, but due to the nature of the material, there will be some variation in the pattern seen here. This adds an element of uniqueness to the pen, with no two patterns being exactly the same. We cannot honor special requests.

My new favorite pen!

I love this pen. It is my second BENU Talisman and this time I ordered it with the fine tip. My first one was sold out in fine so I went with medium. While I love the pen, I don't use it as much because the lines are thicker than I like. I haven't stopped using this one since I got it! The colors are lovely and it feels perfect for fall journalig and letter writing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use this pen with ink cartridges? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

A cartridge is small, disposable, sealed plastic reservoir that holds fountain pen ink. These come pre-filled with ink, and typically you just push to insert them into place and you'll be ready to write!

This pen uses standard international ink cartridges, a common size which is available in many colors from various brands.

You can learn more about how to actually install an ink cartridge on our blog, or in this video tutorial:

How do I use a converter? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

A converter goes in the place of where the ink cartridge would normally go. From there, you can fill your fountain pen from bottled ink.

A converter is a detachable and refillable ink reservoir that allows you to use bottled ink in a cartridge-accepting pen. Typically you will install the converter into the grip section, dip the nib/feed into the ink, and twist or pull the converter knob to draw ink into the converter.

We have a great video showing how to use a converter here:

How do I clean this fountain pen? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

It mostly comes down to flushing out the pen with water, and sometimes a little bit of pen flush if the ink is really stuck. 

We put together a blog post with step-by-step instructions, or you can watch the video here:

We recommend a good cleaning every 2 weeks, and any time you change ink colors. Water will usually do the trick, but we recommend you use our Goulet Pen Flush if the ink has been left in the pen for a while and could have dried up, or when you’re switching ink colors.

For even more information about fountain pen cleaning, check out our Fountain Pen 101 video blog post.
