“Two heart-shaped pieces, which are punched out to make the breather hole on the pen nib, are placed together with crystals in the dome at the top of the pen. While the heart pieces are usually melted down and reused, the new “Shape of a Heart” model incorporates them in the design. The pair of heart-shaped pieces enclosed in the dome gives a feeling of connection with your partner, making it an ideal gift for someone precious.”
Platinum Shape of a Heart Ivoire (PT-00009)
The Platinum #3776 Century “Shape of a Heart Ivoire” features a white sandblasted body with a matte finish, rhodium trim and rhodium plated 14k nib, and a finial containing crystals and two metal hearts. This pen is limited to 2000pcs worldwide. From the promotional copy:
“Just like the first model, it features two heart-shaped pieces created when punching out the breather hole in the nib, placed in a transparent dome on the penʼ s finial with zirconia. While the heart-shaped cutouts are normally melted down and put back into making more nibs, the Shape of Heart fountain pen incorporates them into a penʼs design. The second edition features two heart-shaped 14 gold pieces applied with rhodium plating placed in the dome. The nib, clip and the metal parts are also embellished with a rhodium finish while the body is applied with blasting to give a white matte finish. The contrast with the overall luster of the pen further accentuates the dome of the crown, representing a design unique to the limited model, which is not available in the regular product lineup. The pair of heart-shaped pieces enclosed in the dome symbolizes the connection between partners, making it an ideal romantic gift for your loved one.”

This pen is limited to 2000pcs worldwide. From the promotional copy:
“The pen cap features a unique transparent design adorned with shiny crystals and three heart-shaped 14K gold pieces cut out from the nibs. These “hearts” symbolize the connections between “you,” “me,” and “happiness” through the use of this pen.
