The barrel, or body is usually the largest part of a fountain pen. In modern cartridge filled pens it has practically no other role than to provide support for the use of the pen and cover the cartridge, but initially, when the pens were loaded with droppers, it was used directly as an ink tank.  This role is still played today with some [[filling systems]] such as the [[piston filler]] or [[plunger filler]], in which case it is often equipped with transparent parts (windows or entire sections) to allow the display of the ink level.

Anche quando l'inchiostro non è contenuto direttamente nel corpo, o in una parte dello stesso, ma in un serbatoio separato, come per tutti i sistemi di caricamento che prevedono l'uso di un sacchetto in gomma, il corpo svolge comunque il ruolo di contenitore sia per quest'ultimo che per il meccanismo di caricamento stesso. Inoltre, specialmente nelle produzioni fino agli anni '40, era tipico trovarvi le incisioni del marchio e del nome del produttore (oltre che degli eventuali brevetti della penna).

Inizialmente, anche per la maggiore facilità di lavorazione, era realizzato in forma cilindrica con estremità piatte (il cosiddetto ''[[flat top]]'') ma in seguito all'evolversi delle tendenze stilistiche si è passati a forme più affusolate (con la nascita del cosiddetto stile ''[[streamlined]]''). Inoltre con l'evolversi delle tendenze stilistiche dalla ordinaria sezione rotonda si è passati a forme sfaccettate, triangolari, quadrate, ottagonali, dodecagonali, ecc.

Oltre al differenziarsi per le varie forme adottate dai produttori, il corpo ha subito anche l'evoluzione nell'uso dei [[materiali]] impiegati nella costruzione delle stilografiche, di cui appunto costituisce il componente più grande.

A Duofold disassembled with the pen barrel in the center.

The barrel, or body is usually the largest part of a fountain pen. In modern cartridge filled pens it has practically no other role than to provide support for the use of the pen and cover the cartridge, but initially, when the pens were loaded with droppers, it was used directly as an ink tank. This role is still played today with some filling systems such as the piston filler or plunger filler, in which case it is often equipped with transparent parts (windows or entire sections) to allow the display of the ink level.

Example of inscription on the body of a Balance.

Even when the ink is not contained directly in the barrel, or in a part of it, but in a separate tank, as with all loading systems that use a rubber bag, the body still plays the role of container both for the latter and for the filling mechanism itself. Moreover, especially in the productions up to the '40s, it was typical to find the engravings of the brand and of the name of the producer (as well as of the possible patents of the pen).

Initially, also for the greater facility of working, it was realized in cylindrical form with flat ends (the so-called flat top) but following the evolution of the stylistic tendencies it has been passed to more tapered forms (with the birth of the so-called streamlined style).
