The Diplomat Aero Fountain Pen - Oxyd Brass Stripes brings the Aero's iconic, Zeppelin-inspired profile to a warm, patinated palette. A brass-toned, oxidized finish with crisp striped accents draws the eye along the pen's sculpted grooves, creating depth and character that feel refined rather than showy. Balanced in hand and distinctly German in its engineering, this is a reliable daily writer with design presence.
The Aero's fluted, streamlined silhouette is precision-machined from metal, then treated with an oxidized brass-toned finish that emphasizes the body and cap contours with clean, rhythmic striping. Subtle variations in tone enhance the dimensionality of the flutes, while the metal clip and hardware keep the overall aesthetic cohesive and purposeful. Diplomat's signature soft sliding click cap closes with a smooth, satisfying snap for secure carry and quick access at the desk.
A German-made stainless steel nib delivers immediate starts and a steady, well-regulated flow across a wide range of papers. Available in extra fine, fine, medium, and broad, it offers dependable consistency with just enough tactile feedback to guide the hand. For writers who prefer a touch more spring and subtle line nuance, an optional 14k gold nib upgrade is available. The standard international cartridge/converter system makes ink changes straightforward, encouraging exploration of different inks without complication.
Since 1922, Diplomat has produced writing instruments in Germany with a focus on precise tolerances, durable finishes, and dependable nib performance. The Aero collection channels early aviation design into a modern tool that rewards regular use, combining tactile form with everyday reliability.
Got this pen at the DC Pen Show for a great price.
This is my 6th Aero so I obviously love these pens, but the sort of "steampunk" look of the Oxyd Brass is different than my other colored ones and I am really pleased with it. It's slightly heavier than the Aluminum Aeros but that's insignificant in the writing feel. I love this pen and would definitely recommend it.
