This fountain pen combines precision craftsmanship with a unique scientific feature: a slice of the Muonionalusta Meteorite inset into the pen clip. Originating from northern Sweden, this Iron-Nickel meteorite is known for its distinct Widmanstätten pattern, formed over millions of years as the material cooled in space.
