BLUE MIRAGE FOUNTAIN PEN
shipping caculated at checkout
Will be available at the end of March
Sisyphus pushes the boulder up the mountain, only to have it tumble back down as it reaches the peak. Yet, even if hope in life seems as distant as a mirage, it remains worth pursuing because the essence of life lies in the pursuit itself.
"Blue Mirage" is the new color introduced in the 326 fountain pen series. The shimmering water green and tranquil sea blue, interwoven with pearlescent brilliance, sparkle like the summer night sky at Qixingtan Beach in Hualien, filled with stars, the Milky Way reflecting, and the endless sound of waves beneath the majestic Summer Triangle.
The "Blue Mirage" fountain pen is Laban’s ambitious creation, symbolizing the intersection of time and space, bringing imagery to life.
The new color series for the 326 collection
"A man's work is nothing but this slow trek to rediscover, through the detours of art, those two or three great and simple images in whose presence his heart first opened," Albert Camus once said. Born and raised by the sea, Laban created this new color series for the 326 collection after being inspired by a journey to the eastern coast of Taiwan. The series, beginning with the sea blue starlight of "Blue Mirage," reflects the initial stirrings of the heart under the night sky.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

Do not sanitize your Laban pen with cleansing alcohols
After the covid-19 pandemic, people now use cleansing alcohol or another disinfectant spray to sanitize personal items more frequently. However, your beloved stationery is made with precious parts/materials, if it contacts with solvent/alcohol, the solvent may eat away at the material.
- The gold-plated surface may interact with solvent and loss shimmer or get rusty.
- The acrylic resin part may become weak and get tiny cracks easily.
Thus, we suggest you clean your pen with just water. Also, clean your hand with soap first before your daily writing, which is also a good sense of ritual for both you, and your luxury stationery.
* Ultraviolet sanitize lamps may also damage the acrylic part.
Please use/keep your Laban pen carefully
Do not let your sterling silver, silver-plated, or gold-plated pens contact any chemicals, or keep them in a moist environment for a long time. Please keep the pen in a pen bag or the gift box while carrying it to go out, to avoid surface damage from accidental impact or scratch.
Strongly suggest you store the pen separately with keys or sharp metal items.
How to fix the pen surface damages
If tarnishing occurs, you may use a silver polishing cloth to polish the pens, but it won’t make the pen revert to its original.
Can I purchase a replacement part?
Please contact us directly, and provide your warranty card, also pictures of your pen. We could have a spare replacement for it.
