Esterbrook is one of the greatest names in American pen history. Founded in 1858, by their peak they were making 216 million pens a year. Unfortunately, as the market changed, Esterbrook went out of business in 1971. Now they're back, though, with the name brought back and the designs reinvented by Kenro Industries, who have plenty of experience of bringing back or continuing famous pen brands.

The Estie is inspired by Esterbrook designs from the 1930s. This Limited Edition celebrates Rocky Top Knob, a popular hiking destination at the summit of Thunderhead Mountain in the American south. The gold, silver and orange finish represents Tennessee orange daisies and the colours of the rocks along the Appalachian Trail. The barrel has been manufactured using Diamondcast - a material made from the waste produced by diamond cutters - and allows the colours to layer and blend to catch the light and create depth.
