(Entertainment-NewsWire.com, March 16, 2016 ) San Jose, California -- Feeney Fine Writing Instruments has reported an increase of sales in their fountain pen division over the last six months. There was a fear that ball point and roller ball pens would eventually completely take over the pen market and that a decline in popularity of the fountain pen would eventually prove fatal for the expansion of that product. However sales of Feeney's fountain pens has flourished and the company is planning new pen products for 2016.
According to Stephen Robinson of The Spectator: "The fountain pen should not be regarded as a historical curiosity: global sales are actually increasing. Last Christmas Eve I encountered a scene of utter mayhem in the pen department of John Lewis on Oxford Street as shoppers fought over the remaining models. Sales of fountain pens across the group rose 9 per cent last year, and are also booming on Amazon, which some might think is a bit rich."
Michael Feeney, co-founder of Feeney Fine Writing Instruments has been particularly pleased with the quality and performance of their top seller, the Classic Edition and also the New Black. The Classic Edition is made of Stainless Steel, and comes with a medium nib. It is 5.4 inches long with a weight of 1.4 oz and has a shipping weight of 3.2 oz, making it a fast and easy delivery for the company and the customer. Their New Black also comes with a medium nib, is made of plastic and is 5.5 inches long. It has a viewing window in the barrel that shows ink level reserves. Both have claims to having a smooth steady ink flow without skipping or leaking.
Feeney is very optimistic that the enthusiasm for the high quality of 'Feeney' products will continue this steadily increasing demand for fountain pens.
