The Roundabout Rollerball Pen - Granite Guardians

Indulge in a joyful writing experience that transports you back to the age of when you first put pen to paper. The Roundabout rollerball pen unites the convenience and accessibility of a ballpoint pen with the customizability of using fountain pen inks. Explore every ink colour in our universe with the Roundabout pen.

In the shadowed enclaves of towering buildings, Patch follows the trail of gargoyles that stand guard, day after night. To this age they continue to stand for the history they hold, centuries of stories etched into their stony skin. This cool grey tone features a multitude of shades, highlighted by a rose gold shimmer.

Notable design details:

• While often scary in design, gargoyles have been used for centuries to protect those within the beautiful buildings they perch upon.
• Stony in nature, these sentinels are not only a decorative feature, but they also have the practical purpose of funneling rainwater away from the building.
• Hidden in enclaves and building edges, they have stood the test of time. Next time you're in an old building, look up and perhaps you will spot these artistic architectural accents watching over you.

Notable design motifs:

• Unique 12-sided bollard cap inspired by memories of the merry-go-round and complete with lovely embossed typography.
• Hexagonal grip section drawing from the nuts and bolts of Ferris Wheel Press’ history in printmaking.
• A rollerball tip that can be used to directly draw ink from a bottle, or through the converter for smaller vessels.
• Circular wordmark debossed into the scalloped base of the body.

The Roundabout Rollerball Pen comes with an unfilled ink converter. When filling ink for the first time, please allow up to 1 day for the feeder mechanism to become fully saturated

Filling/Changing Ink Colours:

• Unscrew the barrel from the grip mechanism.
• Submerge the rollerball tip fully into warm water. Flush the tip by twisting/untwisting the converter mechanism until the water runs clear.
• Allow to dry overnight.
• Fill a new colour by submerging the black rollerball tip fully into the ink, then draw the ink into your Roundabout by twisting the converter until you've reached the top position.

Notes:

• For heavily saturated inks and darker tones or clogged tips, you may need to soak the grip/feeder in water overnight
• It is normal for some air bubbles to enter the converter when refilling ink
• Best for use with non-sparkling inks
