Platinum 3776 Century Tortoise Celluloid Fountain Pen

The celluloid editions of the Platinum 3776 Century series are true collector’s items for lovers of Japanese fountain pens. The Tortoise model features a warm blend of amber and brown tones, evoking the natural beauty of a tortoise shell—symbol of longevity and wisdom. Ideal for those who seek traditional aesthetics and meaningful writing tools.

Design and concept

Celluloid is a rare and labor-intensive material that requires months to cure and great skill to shape. In this Tortoise version, warm hues blend into an organic, semi-translucent pattern that makes each pen truly unique. Its marbled finish plays with the light, offering depth and richness to the surface.

Filling system and functionality

This pen is compatible with Platinum ink cartridges or can be filled using the included converter, perfect for those who prefer bottled inks. The 14K gold nib delivers a smooth and expressive writing experience with excellent response. A threaded screw cap ensures a tight seal, protecting the ink and keeping the pen ready to use.
