"I wanted a pen that felt modern but still had that touch of class, and The Nautilus delivers. The bold blue barrel and gold trimmings strike the right balance between sleek and professional, without looking old-school. Being pocket-sized makes it perfect for carrying around, and writing with it feels amazing, even turning my everyday notes into something more refined. Honestly, it’s the perfect pen for someone like me who wants to stand out in style." - Carter L.

Awesome pens
This pen has been amazing and writes so smooth and looks amazing!
Very pleased with this purchase.
Works well smaller than expected but writes very well
I haven’t used a fountain pen in about 30 years, but decided that 2026 would be the year I started writing more and spending less time using a digital screen, so purchased a pocket fountain pen.. it’s well balanced, writes very nicely, and sits in a jacket or trouser pocket comfortably too!
The Nautilus Pocket Size Fountain Pen
my pen had a faulty nib. But Ellington pens changed it quickly and now writes brilliantly. Cant recommend them enough!!
I was very disapointed with the poor quality of these fountain pens. I have order the pocket size and full size fountain pen. These pens are good for beginners but they are very poor quality! I will be very shame to write with these pens in front of my friends, family and my colleagues! As i say, it is good probaly for beginners or childrens. However, the package was well presented.
The Nautilus Pocket Size Fountain Pen
I like it...but it appears to use a different size cartridge. Writes good.
My fav nibs are the broadest you can get, like used in calligraphy. I wish there were a broader nib option but otherwise the Pocket Size pen is lovely and a fine writing instrument.
I am enjoying this pen! I’ve used numerous expensive pens, and this pen compares very well. It’s joined my list of favorite pens!
Writes beautifully, like all the Ellington pens. One suggestion would be to revert to the same cap closure system rather than the screw cap. Also I like that the Nautilus pen finish is matte. Not glossy. Different than most of the full size pens. I also own the Copper finish pocket pen. Same comment about the cap closure systems. The finish of the pen is beautiful.
Easy writing pens. A little hard to get ink in at first but worth it!
Very practical pen, excellent writing. I am now a loyal customer with you!
The Pocket Nautilus writes as well as its big brother--smooth. The barrel color is just as good, only smaller. The difference is, on the full-sized Nautilus you just pull the cap off. On the Pocket Nautilus you have to give it a twist and unscrew it. At this point it's a matter of personal preference. I prefer a cap that just pulls off, but I'm going to keep giving my Poceet Nautilus a twist and keep using it--because it just writes so well.
The pen arrived and it was well packaged. Opened package to a beautiful pen. Could not wait to write with it and get the smooth flow of the ink marking the paper. I have a few fountain pens this one is among my better pens. I like the size as I have small hands and it is easier to carry around. This is my one pen that will be blue ink and I purchased Ellington ink to go with the pen. I really like the rich dark color of the blue without it looking black. I am contemplating maybe getting a finer point nib mainly because I like real fine points even in my pencils. Will I get another Ellington pen I would not hesitate and there could be something in the future.
Absolutely love this pen! Every time someone at work borrows it, they can’t stop raving about how smooth and high-quality it feels. It writes effortlessly, has a great weight to it, and just feels premium in your hand. Honestly, every pen I’ve bought from Ellington Pens has been impressive—stylish, reliable, and a joy to use. I’m definitely a loyal customer for life and will be buying more soon!
One of the bets fountain pens I ever used! It writes soooooo smoothly, and it's so beautiful!! I bought it in white, very classy!!

Sounds off the wall, but it’s true: This pen writes with a steady flow my autistic temperament demands. No catches or cheap ink. The weight of the pen is perfect, smooth, and no chance of leaking in my pocket.
It’s an amazing product I wish I could promote in my magazine, the Blue Mountain Review.
Few companies are this incredible.
