The Estie collection
Esterbrook's origins go back to the mid-1800s in New York; at its peak, Esterbrook was the largest pen manufacturer in the United States, employing up to 600 people. Relaunched in 2018 by Kenro Industries, the brand revives the spirit of 1858 with fountain pens, rollerballs, inks, notebooks and pen cases.
A true gem of the writing-instrument world, the Estie reflects Esterbrook's commitment to craftsmanship. Its cigar shape and its materials – turned acrylic, genuine diamond flakes – have made it an iconic collection, coveted by collectors. Ballpoint, rollerball (Schmidt refill), fountain pen and oversize fountain pen.

ブランドの歴史
The brand's story
Esterbrook was the pen of choice for many 20th-century figures, such as presidents Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy. Donald Duck came to life on an Esterbrook No. 356 by the hand of the famous Disney artist Carl Barks.
Linus and the rest of the Peanuts gang were drawn by Charles Schulz exclusively with his trusty Esterbrook. When production of his beloved Radio 914 nib was discontinued, he bought up all the remaining nibs and used them until his last comic strip was published, in 2000.
