Inspired by the geometric honeycomb pattern created through the innovative combination of 3D printing and resin casting, Neon Hive is bold, modern, and impossible to ignore. The vivid pink lattice appears to float above a dark, shimmering background, creating a striking sense of depth and precision. Built on the elegant Concava ballpoint platform, this pen blends contemporary design with everyday practicality.
 
What makes this pen special
The blank for this pen began as a bespoke 3D-printed structure, carefully designed to create the distinctive hexagonal pattern. The cavities were then filled with resin, producing a unique interplay of colour, depth and light. The result is a pen that feels as much like a piece of modern art as it does a writing instrument.
 
The flowing concave profile complements the geometric pattern beautifully, offering a comfortable grip and balanced feel in the hand.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this pattern painted onto the pen?
No. The pattern is created by a 3D-printed structure that becomes part of the pen blank before being filled with resin.
 
Will another pen look the same?

Can the refill be replaced?
Yes. The pen accepts standard ballpoint refills that are readily available.
 
Maker's Story
I've always enjoyed experimenting with new materials and techniques, and this pen represents a step into a different kind of craftsmanship. Rather than starting with a solid blank, the pattern was first designed and printed in 3D before being encapsulated in resin. Watching the geometric structure emerge during the turning process was fascinating, revealing the depth and character hidden beneath the surface. The result is a pen that combines traditional hand-turning with modern manufacturing techniques, creating something that couldn't be achieved by either method alone.
