The name "Conway Stewart" is well-known among pen aficionados-both for its former life (beginning in 1905) as a British pen maker offering high-quality pens in "a variety of attractive colours and designs suitable for every purpose," and its current incarnation (since 1996) with an updated, though familiar, credo. With intriguing names like "Nebula" and "Yellow Whirl," color is still central to the brand, as evidenced by its lively offerings in resin, ebonite and casein and, more recently and more subtly, in its maki-e pens. And there is no doubt that there is a pen for every purpose from the petite Dinkie to the robust Churchill to the recently introduced and larger- than-life Great Exhibition pen.
