Pens and Things
Pilot Kakuno :)
The first of these new pens to share is the Pilot Kakuno is probably the one I'm most excited about.Â
The End of the TWSBI 580 AL-Oranges
We're saying good-bye to the TWSBI 580 AL in Orange. We just got our last shipment in, and once those are gone, they'll be gone!Â
The Kaweco Sport - Brown Edition
We know the best things in life are brown. Worn-in leather boots, chocolate & coffee, some of my favourite inks like Lie de The or Diamine Ochre
Tomoe River Paper Notebooks
I hope you enjoyed the last blog post on our visit to Coach House Press! We certainly enjoyed looking around, but the visit was especially exciting because we got to pick up a project we've been working on with John.
Lamy CopperOrange Al-Star Is In!
Now, let me tell you, we have received so many phone calls, emails, visits, messages on social media, telepathic dreams and more about these Lamy CopperOrange Al-Stars.
Kaweco Italic or Calligraphy Nibs - 1.1, 1.5, 1.9, 2.3
Many companies make italic or stub nibs as an option for their pens, including Lamy, TWSBI, Edison, and of course, Kaweco. These "italic" or "calligraphy" nibs are primarily a European writing style, so you may not find them as often on Japanese or Asian pens, except as a music nib.
Inks for your Special Valentine
At some point, I may have mentioned I'm not really a pink ink person. I don't know if it's the bashfulness of using such a bright ink, or that it's too girly, but at this time of year, you've got to pull out the scarlet and the fuchsia.
Life Kappan Writing Stationery
Jon has gone off and left me with these two non-contributing members of the family, and so I thought it would be a good time to get some writing done.Â
Rohrer & Klingner Verdigris
I'm a big fan of Rohrer & Klingner inks: Alt-Goldgrun, Leipziger Schwarz, Konigsblau, Salix...the list goes on.Â
Fountain Pen Inks for Christmas Cards
One of the best things about holidays in general is that it's an opportunity to use inks that may not normally make it into the rotationÂ
