A new color “LAVENDE,” which was inspired by lavender flowers, will be added to the #3776 CENTURY “NICE” series, which has been well received since its launch.
Nice is a world-renowned resort and tourist city located in Cote d’Azur in southern France. In early summer, Province region experiences its most beautiful season, with blooming fields of lavender that stretch all the way to the horizon.
The light purple lavender flowers, gently blowing in the early summer wind and bathed in soft light, are expressed through a sandblast finish applied on the high transparency resin barrel. Thereafter, sharp accent lines are added through shaper cutting. The pen also features an exquisite pink gold metal trim.
Lavande, the French word for lavender, is said to be the “queen of herbs,” which is highly fragrant and has been prized as a medicinal herb since ancient Roman times for its healing effect. In flower language, lavender denotes “silence” due to the tranquilizing effect as well as its magically strong scent. As the flower language implies, LAVENDE fountain pen creates a sense of calm, inviting one to breathe deeply into writing, making it unique among other NICE models.
The Platinum 3776 Century Nice Lavende is available with a 14k rose gold nib in sizes Fine, Medium, or Broad. The first 3000 pens are a numbered limited edition. Includes cartridge and converter.

A wonderful, wonderful take on a demonstrator pen! The color is quite beautiful, and the subtle striations that run the length of the body add visual interest while also making the pen a pleasure to hold. The pen overall is also quite light. So this would be perfect for someone looking for a daily writer, especially for long writing sessions. The nib itself is simply wonderful. With just a whisper of feedback, the nib is smooth and responsive. And though it’s not flexible, the 14k nib has a pleasurable bounce to it that nicely rounds off the experience of writing with this pen. I had Dan grind mine to a straight italic–and the result is simply spectacular. Though it’s more exacting to use than a stub or a cursive italic, this straight italic nib delivers in terms of crisp line variation. By itself this pen is great value. An even better value is this pen expertly ground and tuned by Dan. It’s simply worth every penny.
