The Twinkle JR adds sparkle to your writing with its translucent body and dazzling white accents. Compact and charming, this JR pen blends whimsical design with reliable performance. Whether journaling or drafting notes, it’s a perfect balance of elegance and playfulness. Let this shimmering pen brighten your collection and inspire creativity in every stroke.

A modern take on a vintage classic, it is complemented by gold-plated trim. It fills via standard international cartridge/converter (included) and has a gold-plated JoWo #5 stainless steel nib.

From Esterbrook:

The “J” was the original Esterbrook’s sleek and suave, classic 1940’s and 50’s pocket pen that appealed to the practicality of the times. It was the perfect pen for both men and women, and we think it still is today. Our new “JR” model, introduced as part of our revival of the Esterbrook brand and added to our core line of collections, is stylish and refined without being too fancy. It’s meant to match your style, as nicely as it graces your hand. With an elegant design, that isn’t fussy, it is compact in size, so you can always have one on hand and with you on the go, wherever you go. 

Both the German JoWo nib and the top of the pen have been engraved with the Esterbrook Eternity symbol.

Stunning pen!

The Esterbrook JR in the Twinkle colorway is stunning! The barrel of the pen rubs against the converter when taking it off to ink it up, and rubs again when putting it back on. It's quite a tight fit. Not sure if this is normal for the JRs? Other than that, it's a great pen! I love how lightweight it is!

Pen is beautifu!

Pen is beautifu! But the nib is quite scratchy and I had problems with hard starting fresh out of the box. I ended up using a brass sheet to floss the nib, now the medium is more of a broad but I haven’t had flow problems since, the pen is still makes lots of noise when using it but hopefully this lessens with time. I also really wish I had looked at the shipping policy before paying the overnight shipping that ended up coming two days later anyway because I didn’t order early enough in the day could of just gotten two day shipping for half the price. Wish it had a notice at check out instead of in a completely separate tab all on its own. Some of that was my mistake but to be fair this was my first time ordering from here. I did however get a free bottle of ink I didn't have yet and that is a really nice bonuse. I will be ordering from here again but I will be triple checking my shipping next time.
