Tom Hessin Edinburgh Fountain Pen - Firth Blue - The Goulet Pen Company
Tom Hessin Edinburgh Fountain Pen - Firth Blue
Firth Blue is an elegant fountain pen design in the Tom Hessin Edinburgh Collection, inspired by the Firth of Forth which is a stunning estuary on the coast of this historic area of the city and Tom Hessin’s original Edinburgh Pen from the archives. The smooth wooden pen barrel has a unique finish, made from real wood and reflective of the blue waters of the Firth of Forth. Each natural wood barrel is beautifully offset by the modern chrome trim accents.
The Firth Blue fountain pen is complete with a tapered wooden barrel and stainless steel JoWo nib, offering a smooth lay down of ink on the page. Each nib is protected by a satisfying push close cap, complete with attractive band featuring the Tom Hessin logo. Adorning the cap is chrome clip that features the five diamond detail and is emblematic of the five generations that span the Tom Hessin legacy.
Each Edinburgh pen is presented in a stylish Tom Hessin box, and includes pen card leaflet, ink cartridge and converter. Backed by a two-year mechanical warranty, the Tom Hessin Edinburgh collection will help you make a lasting statement.
Note: This pen comes with an ink cartridge stored in the body. If it doesn’t fall right out, you can get it loose by giving the body a few solid taps on a hard surface.

We do our best to photograph the pens to show how they will appear in person, but due to the nature of the material, there will be some variation in the pattern seen here. This adds an element of uniqueness to the pen, with no two patterns being exactly the same. We cannot honor special requests.
