About the Conklin 1898 Misto
Dive into the brand new, beautiful Conklin 1898 fountain pens in exciting new Misto™ colors and discover the art of resin mixing! Choose from a stunning array of colors including: Misto Purple, Misto Orange, or Misto Green.
The Conklin 1898 fountain pen design is inspired by the rich heritage of the brand, designed with comfort and durability in mind, and is well-suited to individuals looking for a well-sized, cigar-shaped fountain pen with a larger surface area for a comfortable grip while writing. The stunning Misto™ colors (Green, Purple, and Orange) feature unique color blends - no two pens are alike! The Conklin 1898 Misto Purple and Misto Orange colors are accented with a rose gold trim, and Misto Green is finished with a chrome trim.
The Conklin 1898 Misto Collection features a cap ring with a Conklin original vintage pattern, initially used on the first self-filling pens produced by the company back in 1898. The ring also features the year the legendary Conklin pen company was founded by Roy Conklin in Toledo, Ohio. Together, these elements pay homage to the vintage Conklin era and its extraordinary legacy in the world of writing instruments. Lastly, each pen features Conklin’s distinctive “rocker style” pen clip, designed to offer a smooth clip-on action. Conklin 1898 Misto fountain pens are fitted with a stainless steel #6 Jowo nib (available in varying sizes, and also available with a 14kt gold nib). Each Cushion Point nib features the Conklin name and the special crescent-shaped breathing hole. Conklin 1898 fountain pens are cartridge converter fountain pens compatible with international standard size ink cartridges or converters (the pen is equipped with a threaded converter included with your purchase).
Each Conklin 1898 Misto fountain pen is packaged in a luxury gift box with a custom sleeve. Conklin 1898 pens are an ideal gift and a lovely addition to any pen collection.
What is Misto™ Resin?
In Italian Misto means “mixed” or “mixed together”, which refers to the NEW unique resin mix of various multiple colors for each pen used in the Conklin 1898 Misto Collection. Mixing resins for luxury pens requires precision and attention to detail to achieve a superior and aesthetically pleasing result. The process is started by selecting a high-quality liquid resin, choosing suitable color combinations, and following a precise step by step process of mixing the colors together. Mixing different resin colors can prove to be quite challenging for several reasons. First, the varying opacity and translucency of the colors can interact in unexpected ways, making it difficult to predict the final color outcome. Additionally, the highly concentrated pigments used in resin can lead to unpredictable color variations, requiring careful consideration of proportions. Managing the curing time becomes crucial when working with multiple colors, as it may extend the resin's working window. Achieving the right color balance poses yet another obstacle, as each color's intensity may differ. Mastering the mix requires painstaking attention to detail, shaping the final outcome through trial and error. The colors, with their distinct characteristics, can play unpredictable tricks, defying initial expectations. Countless attempts were made to balance pigments and proportion, leading to finally achieving desired one of a kind variations. Moreover, environmental factors like temperature and humidity can influence the curing process, adding further complexity to the task. The introduction of air bubbles during mixing can also drastically impact the resin's final appearance. It is essential to gain experience and practice with small test batches before embarking on a larger project, understanding how different colors interact and ensuring compatibility between them. With patience and perseverance, one can overcome these challenges and create stunning, infinite combinations of resin artworks with skillful color mixing techniques.
