Which One Will Be Your Next Fountain Pen ?

Recommended Posts

My next pen is to be a TWSBI 580RB, it is out of stock at the moment and that makes me want it more!

I keep ordering vintage pens... I need to finish my writing and sketch kit with a Lamy Safari Charcoal EF and a Kaweco Classic Sport White B with a clip. I need to avoid looking at beautiful vintage pieces for awhile after today's splurge, haha!

I think an Esterbrook J. Haven't decided which color yet. It will be my entrance into vintage pens.

I had a lovely day, as both my Pelikan 405 with a Richard Binder italifine nib, AND my fall Edison Nouveau arrived today. My flexible gold nib (also from Richard Binder) for my fall Nouveau is due next week; can't wait. And this italifine nib is so mind blowing I am going to pick up a few more for my Edisons.

 

A few pictures, including one of my Fall Nouveau with its winter and spring siblings. AND- I was lucky enough to be contacted by someone willing to sell me the winter 2014 Edison Nouveau, so shortly, I will have a complete set:

I'm waiting . . . and waiting . . . and waiting for the TWSBI 580 USA models to come in at the Goulets. Thinking of getting one in EF and getting a 1.5 stub to go with it (or vice versa).

I am hoping to get a Sheaffer PFM 1 in blue with a factory Italic broad nib. Found the nib, just need the pen now.

WTB Sheaffer Balance oversized with a flex nib, semi flex, broad, or medium in carmine red or grey striated.

 

Wtb Sheaffer Pfm in black or blue with a medium or broad nib.

And I'm beginning to fall for this one too...

My Accent Briarwood arrived a couple of days ago after weeks of me drooling. It's beautiful to look at, it feels good, the nib looks gorgeous and writes beautifully, the clip is an engineering marvel in itself, I sit just opening and closing the unique filler access machinery.

 

I might keep it :)

I also like the Lamy Accent. Slim pen but very handy ....
