Platypus Pens
3D-printed and algorithmically defined, there’s nothing ordinary about Platypus Pen.
Pens by Platypus Pens are novel, innovative, and unlike anything else on the market. From the modestly sized and affordably priced Model 3 (which can be configured with a nib, rollerball unit, or ballpoint refill), to the striking Model 20 featuring a unique twist-fill system (which was awarded Michael Lampard’s 2024 Pen of the Year), there’s something for every writing enthusiast.
These pens are meticulously hand-crafted using 3D-printed components, enabling an extraordinary variety of surface textures, finishes, and an almost dizzying range of colours. The code behind the 3D-printing process is almost entirely hand-written by Michael Lew to ensure seamless results of exceptional quality.
A loyal base of repeat customers attests to the fact that Platypus Pens aren’t just great 3D-printed pens; they’re great fountain pens, full stop. What began as a retirement project has evolved into a near full-time obsession for Michael, and one that fountain pen fans are grateful for.
