A beautiful and infinitely refillable fineliner, writing, and brush pen, including 9 professional artist's tips and 2 writing tips.
Too many pens and their refills are disposable by design. Similar to printer ink cartridges, pen companies want you to buy into their format so they can keep selling you replacement pens or refills repeatedly. It's good for their business, but it's bad for the planet and stifles creativity.
"It is brilliant: Beautiful, the perfect weight, a range of nibs, satiny ink. The drawing (almost) does itself."
David Downton
As a product designer and craftsman who loves using a variety of pens to create illustrations and designs, Tom had this very problem! Pens would sit in his drawer for years, either patiently waiting for that very specific refill, or he was just loath to dispose of an otherwise fully functional pen that had run out of ink.
Having designed and handmade calligraphy and fountain pens for creative folks across the world full-time for over 6 years, Tom decided it was time to apply his knowledge to the pen he used most of all and one of the biggest culprits when it came to its disposable nature: the fineliner.

What are the differences between the Duo and the Single Lumos?
