Kanwrite Heritage 1947 Tricolor Edition

A Classic Heritage. Inspired by India.

The Kanwrite Heritage 1947 Tricolor Edition celebrates the spirit of India’s independence through a timeless fountain pen design. Built on the much-loved Kanwrite Heritage platform, this special edition combines a classic silhouette, distinctive Tricolor-inspired colours, balanced proportions, and an extensive choice of handcrafted nibs to create a fountain pen that is both meaningful and enjoyable to write with.

The Heritage features a balanced Acrylic resin body with a classic form that sits comfortably in the hand. Its substantial yet well-proportioned design makes it equally suited to everyday writing, journaling, signatures, and longer writing sessions.

Piston Filling – Simple, Elegant, Generous

The Heritage features a piston filling mechanism, allowing you to draw ink directly from a bottle without the need for disposable cartridges. Simply twist the filling mechanism to fill the pen with your favourite bottled ink.

The piston system offers the convenience of a self-contained filling mechanism while giving the Heritage its distinctive classic fountain-pen character.
