The Kaweco Perkeo is the perfect pen for students and beginners; it's as beautiful as it is affordable!

Originally a dip pen (around the 1900s), it is now a fountain pen compatible with cartridges or a converter.

In 1883, in Heidelberg, Germany, a wooden penholder factory was founded: the Heidelberger Federhalter Fabrik. This factory was eventually renamed Kaweco in 1889 by its new owners, Heinrich Koch and Rudolph Weber. In 1911, the Kaweco Sport pen line was created. Thanks to its small size, this pen was aimed at athletes at the time—hence the name Sport. In 1971, Kaweco even obtained a license to produce pens dedicated to the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich! Today, Kaweco is one of the most popular brands in the writing instrument market.
