Sailor 1911 Large Casual Fountain Pen with Gold Trim Steel Nib

There’s something quietly reassuring about a pen that simply gets on with the business of writing—no theatrics, no fuss, just consistent, elegant performance. The Sailor 1911 Large Casual Fountain Pen does precisely that, offering the unmistakable silhouette of Sailor’s iconic design with a softer, more contemporary palette.

The 1911 Casual Range
Part of Sailor’s thoughtfully considered 1911 Casual range, this model is designed for those who appreciate the generous proportions of the 1911 Large, but don’t insist upon a gold nib. Rather cleverly, Sailor has engineered the steel nib to feel every bit as satisfying in use—smooth, precise, and reassuringly consistent. The result is all the practical charm of the classic 1911, delivered at a far more approachable price.

The Body
The muted resin colours feel calm and considered, paired with warm gold trim that adds just enough polish without tipping into ostentation. It’s a pen that looks as at home in a meeting as it does beside your notebook on a quiet Sunday morning.

The Nib
Fitted with a smooth, reliable steel nib, this fountain pen delivers the character Sailor is known for—controlled, precise, and always a pleasure across the page. Whether you’re drafting ideas or signing something of importance, it keeps your writing steady and expressive, never scratchy, never uncertain.

A thoughtful choice for both seasoned fountain pen users and those stepping up from the everyday biro, this is writing made quietly better. Available in four thoughtfully chosen colours—Black, Blue, Green, and Red—you can select the one that best suits your writing mood, or indeed, your desk.

Supplied in a smart Sailor gift box, complete with two Sailor ink cartridges so it’s ready to write straight out of the box.

Approximate dimensions: 141mm length, 18mm width. Weight: 20g.
