Platypus Pens
3D-printed & 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.
