All you need you knowA solid brass pen in dark-grey gunmetal finish with a diamond-cut barrel for grip. Uniform tone throughout, G2 refill — the most widely available format in India.
The Gunmetal Diamond-Cut Brass Pen is FountainEarth's diamond-cut roller-ball — solid brass with a dark-grey gunmetal finish, diamond-cut machining across the barrel for grip and light play, and a uniform gunmetal tone running across the entire pen, clip included. The most-reviewed pen in the line — 25 verified reviews at 5.0 stars. Refillable with the widely available G2 standard ballpoint refill — replacements start at ₹50 at any stationery store.
How it is used
A pen for the working day that involves more writing than typing — and the desk where the pen is picked up fifty times a day and put down without ceremony.
- Solid brass body, gunmetal finish. Dark-grey gunmetal tone on solid brass, consistent across cap and barrel — no separate accent colour.
- Diamond-cut barrel pattern. Geometric diamond-cut texture machined into the barrel — adds grip, catches light, distinguishes the pen instantly from plain brass bodies.
- Uniform gunmetal tone, no separate accents. The clip, cap ring, and barrel all carry the same dark-grey gunmetal finish — no contrasting gold or silver accent colour anywhere. The cleanest tonal silhouette in the FountainEarth pen line.
- 14 cm length, 1.1 cm barrel. Standard adult-hand proportions; sits comfortably with the cap posted.
- Snap-click cap. Secure metal-on-metal click closure — no rattle in the pocket.
- G2 standard refill. Ships with a G2-format ballpoint cartridge in blue ink — the most widely available refill format in India. Replacements start at ₹50 at any stationery store.
- Ships gift-ready. Every pen ships in the FountainEarth signature gift box — sleeve closure, foiled wordmark. No additional wrapping needed.

Made in Bharat — contract manufactured to specification, finished at our Delhi workshop
FountainEarth is a Made-in-Bharat brand. The brass body is contract manufactured to our specifications at a facility that has produced brass pens for the German luxury market for over two decades. The diamond-cut texture is machined into the brass during manufacture, so the pattern is part of the metal — it cannot wear off, fade, or flake. The finish, the cap mechanism, and the gunmetal treatment are quality-checked at our Delhi workshop before each pen ships. Fountain Earth's catalogue stays small by choice: six brass pens total, each with a single deliberate design idea.
The G2 ballpoint refill is engineered for clean ink flow and quick dry time. G2 is the most widely stocked refill format in India, available at any stationery store starting at around ₹50. G2 refills are NOT compatible with Schmidt-format pens — only the Gunmetal Diamond-Cut and the gift sets containing the Gunmetal use this format.
How to care for the pen:
- Wipe occasionally with a soft dry cloth. No chemical cleaners.
- Store in the FountainEarth gift box between heavy use, or any soft cloth pouch.
- When the cartridge runs dry, unscrew the rear barrel, slide the old refill out, slide the new refill in, and screw the barrel back on.
- Avoid extreme heat (closed cars in summer) — brass is durable but ink can dry faster in heat.
Every pen carries a 1-Year Warranty. The warranty covers material and craftsmanship defects in the first year — the cap mechanism, the threading, the finish. If a component fails after long use or accidental damage, write to support@fountainearth.com for a quote — replacement component charged at the time of repair, no labour charge.
Frequently asked questions
What refill does it use, and where can I buy them?
The pen uses the G2 standard ballpoint refill in blue ink — the most widely available refill format in India, starting at around ₹50 at any stationery store. G2 refills are NOT compatible with Schmidt-format pens (used in our other five brass pens); they are a separate format. Specify "G2 ballpoint refill, blue, standard" when buying.
Is the gunmetal finish plated?
The gunmetal tone runs across the entire pen — the body, the clip, and the cap ring all carry the same dark-grey gunmetal plating. There are no separate accents in a different colour (no gold, no silver contrast). The body is solid brass with industrial-grade gunmetal plating, engineered for years of normal daily use.
Is this a fountain pen?
No — it's a ballpoint pen with a fountain-pen weight. The G2 ballpoint cartridge gives clean ink flow with the dry-time of a ballpoint, in a brass body weighted like a fountain pen. Best of both formats for daily use.
Is FountainEarth the same as Fountain Earth?
Yes. Same brand, same workshop. FountainEarth is the compound brand mark; Fountain Earth is the spaced form we use in legal and trade contexts.
Does it come gift-ready?
Yes. Every piece ships in the FountainEarth signature gift box — sleeve closure, foiled with the brand wordmark. Suitable for gifting without extra wrapping. For corporate orders we have two tiers: plain corporate orders start at a 10-unit minimum; custom-branded orders (gift box co-branding, monogramming) start at a 25-unit minimum, with a typical 4–5 week turnaround.
