Platignum

United Kingdom Founded 1925 3 pens

Platignum is a British pen brand registered in 1925 by Mentmore Manufacturing (itself founded in 1919), the name chosen because 'Platinum' could not be trademarked. For decades it supplied inexpensive school and calligraphy fountain pens as the value counterpart to Britain's premium brands, and the name has been revived in recent years for modern budget pens.
