Tools to Live By Le Chat Fountain Pen
Description
Chat means “talk” in English, and Le Chat is French for cat—two ideas that come together rather neatly in this quietly charming fountain pen. Inspired by the resident cats often found around the Tools To Live By shop in Taipei, this is the brand’s first fountain pen, designed with both affection and intention. Look closely at the nib and you’ll spot it: a classic outline that subtly echoes a cat’s face, watching over your words. Made and designed in Taiwan, the pen feels solid and balanced in the hand, never flimsy, never precious.
The cap posts securely onto the pen body for comfortable writing, and the thoughtfully shaped barrel won’t roll off your desk when you momentarily stop to think. Fitted with a Fine nib, it’s always friendly to beginners while remaining satisfying for seasoned fountain pen users. Writing with it feels calm, deliberate, and—dare we say—rather companionable.
Designed with You (and Your Ideas) in Mind

Fine nib for everyday writing: The F tip always delivers clean, controlled lines, ideal for beginners and daily notes.
-
Balanced, roll-resistant body: The pen sits securely on your desk and feels reassuringly solid in your hand.
