The capped brass Kaweco LILIPUT ballpoint pen is made from solid uncoated brass, which will age and develop its own unique patina over time unless polished. It has a pleasing weightiness in the hand. The Liliput is one of Kaweco's oldest series, originally (in 1908) made of ebonite. Kaweco first produced a Liliput fountain pen in 1910, advertised as a safety pen for sports people — its precise engineering and tightly fitting screw-on lid meaning it was less likely to suffer leaks when carried into the field. Today these pens are machined from brass and equipped with a stainless steel nib. As diminutive as their name might suggest and with a rounded capsule-like form, they will travel barely noticed in a pocket or purse. 96mm long when closed, and 125mm in use. This pen comes in a Kaweco gift tin.
