Conway Stewart Churchill Colour

[david6]

Trying to find the colour of my Conway Stewart Churchill. Anyone know what the numbers mean 631/028 mean?

There was a CS material color chart that showed all the various colors available including the color number. Thought I had a copy of it, but can't find it right now. However, found an old FPN thread with the color numbers (see post 1) and a color chart (see post 7). Don't think all the color numbers are listed.

For a non-LE pen, '631' means the pen is the 631st pen made with color '028'.

 

Have noticed a lot of ebay sellers of CS pens have misinterpreted this system as if the numbers represent a Limited Edition pen and advertise their pens as LE pens. Seems like a lot buyers have probably been fooled by this.

 

HTH,

Thank you for the link to a list of colours. Unfortunately my colour is not listed. I’ve been looking round the Internet and I ‘think’ that maybe the colour of my pen might be called Rioja. It’s a very dark colour and looks wonderful.

You're welcome.

 

Yes, I think it is Rioja....remember that color now.

 

Enjoy that great pen.

I saved this link to a Conway Stewart 2012 brochure which has many of their colors on display on a number of pages. Perhaps you can find your color among them.

Were you able to identify the color? Do you have more pictures of the pen? From the picture it looks like it might be bracken or bracket brown

Hi David,

 

Looks like you have pen # 28, made from colour 631, which on a list I have is indeed Rioja.

 

Here are some of the colour codes I've recorded:

 

 

602 OXFORD BLUE STRIPE 603 PATRIOT 604 HEATHER 605 AMBER 606 HONEY NOIRE 607 PURPLE AMETHYST 608 QUARTZ BURGUNDY 609 BRONZE 610 EMERALD GREEN 611 BUTTONFILL BURGUNDY 612 SILVER STORM 613 WOODGRAIN 614 QUARTZ GREEN 615 DARTMOOR 616 QUARTZ WHITE 617 CHERRY RED 618 OPAL 619 SILVER STREAK 620 CORAL GREEN 621 AMETHYST 622 SAPPHIRE BLUE 623 BURGUNDY BLUSH 624 FRESIAN 625 AZURE 626 BLACK WHIRL 627 PEACH MELBA 628 SCARLET WHIRL 629 ORANGE WHIRL 631 RIOJA 632 WALNUT 634 BRACKEN

 

Obviously, this is not an official list. Just one I've put together, but it sort of corroborates your pen colour code with the colour you think it is.

 

Love to see some images of the whole pen.

 

Cheers,
