Orange Fountain Pens


doodlesinink

Recommended Posts

I really like the color orange so I was thinking of collecting pens that are orange. So far, I only have one - a Schneider Zippi. I'm hoping to buy a Sheaffer VFM in orange and, sometime in the future, an Aurora Ipsilon Satin Orange.

 

The problem is, those are the only orange fountain pens that I know of. So I would really appreciate if anybody could mention other orange FPs that can be found out there.

 

Thanks a lot!

I have the Lamy Orange pen, which reminds me of a 1970s type color orange. I have not seen too many pictures that capture the color correctly.

 

 

Another pen that is Orange is the Delta Dolcevita.

I have a "Creamsicle" Taccia Merit that is my favorite pen!! It writes smooth as silk and with the broad nib puts down a bold, wet line. I highly reccomend it!!!

 

Good Luck

M320? Mine resembles more a marble-veined sparkling yellow, but I've heard others here saying "Orange".

I just gave a friend a Sheaffer VFM in "Maximum Orange" for Christmas. It's a great little pen for only $15 and she calls it her "carrot" pen.

 

Montegrappa made a pen called the Micra that was available in orange. I'm not sure if it's made anymore.

 

I guess you will need some orange Rhodia notebooks to go along with your collection :lol:
