Pilot Vanishing Point Black Birchwood features a retractable 18-karat gold nib with rhodium coating.
Birchwood is naturally warm and elegant, but Pilot goes further by stabilizing it with a resin treatment. The process locks the grain in place so it won’t swell, warp, or absorb moisture, leaving you with a pen that feels alive in the hand yet stays precise and dependable for years.
The Vanishing Point is an excellent daily carry fountain pen and can easily be carried without fear of leaking ink or accidentally stabbing yourself with the nib! There is a trap door that covers the retractable nib, keeping the pen from drying out as well as ink from spilling. Each Vanishing Point comes in black gift box, and includes a Pilot converter as well as one Pilot blue ink cartridge.
