Kilk designers have utilized the concept of the “curve in its own tension,” which is widely preferred in traditional Eastern arts, in the form of the Orient Fountain Pen. After a long debate on whether this curve is natural or not, the ends of this form have been crowned with a sharp cut from both ends of the pen.
The geometric pattern inspired by the sunflower petals on the body is a manifestation of this perspective towards the East.

Description
“Ex Oriente Lux” The light rises from the East. In this design, Kilk emerges before pen lovers with the concept of “the tension of its own curve,” which we can encounter in every realm of Eastern arts. This line approach, influenced by the understanding of minimalist design today, is the most useful instrument used by the artist or designer to visualize abstract images in their work.
We can say that “Bezier Curve,” one of the pioneering concepts of digital design, is a more mechanical counterpart of these instruments.
