Caliper Studios
is producing a fresh new line of one of a kind fountain
pens. This company is the brain child of Joseph Cali,
retired architectural designer, accomplished and acclaimed
artist, scupturer and avid pen collector.
The pens in this collection are Mr. Cali's latest venture
as a manufacturer. It all started with a dream and the
lathe he received as a gift. Mr. Cali sketches out shapes
of the caps and barrels, then tinkers with the materials,
maps out his color schemes and puts his designs to the
test. Each instrument is hand made, from beginning to
end. Each piece is weight tested for balance and ease
of use. Each of them are unique in design and materials.
The design aspect of each pen is what has sparked Mr.
Cali to fulfill his dream. His background as a visual
artist with painitngs and charcoals on display at places
like the Brooklyn Museum, Museum of Modern Art, the Fort
Worth Modern Art Museum and Kohinoor Museum and Wagner
College, have fortified his confidence to pursue his passion.
With each new finished product comes the satisfaction
that the product is the best possible quality, design
and function. The pens are made of acrylics, seasoned
celluloids, industrial plastics with the look and feel
of hard rubber, ivory and marbleized plastics, from both
here and abroad.
Each pen is presented with either a 14kt gold vintage
nib and feed giving it the look and feel of years gone
by, or the modern 14 and 18kt gold nibs used today in
modern pen manufacturing.
We are proud to present some of his outstanding
designs.
All pens are priced at $325.00 with
free leather carrying case
