I don't normally look in the P&PP forum (it reminds me too much of work) but I wandered in here today. I'm glad I did; there is some very nice nib eye candy.

 

Here are a few of shots of mine that are close at hand.

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

Took this photo in January but thought it would be a good addition to this thread.

Edit: ok, I had trouble uploading the image. Sorry for the double post. Let's see if this works:

“I view my fountain pens & inks as an artist might view their brushes and paints.

They flow across paper as a brush to canvas, transforming my thoughts into words and my words into art.

There is nothing else like it; the art of writing and the painting of words!”
