A Christmas Carol is a classic Christmas story that has been told for a long time, and [Onoto](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/onoto-christmas-carol-fountain-pen) has captured the essence of it in the '2021 Christmas Carol' pen. The pen is very limited-edition as only 21 pieces will be made to commemorate the end of the year.

The 2021 Christmas Carol pen is made with high-density acrylic and is decorated with intricate gold winter details on a black and red striped background. The pen uses an Onoto size seven nib in gold-plated stainless steel and uses a converter or standard European cartridge.

A Christmas Carol has been made into various movies and books since Charles Dickens wrote it in 1843, but a pen is a unique addition to the story.
