Your box is very beautiful, Wateryflow. Where did you get it?

 

I use this the box for the samples

 

And use the drawers of a little chest I made dor the bottles of ink

 

Hey fountainpenpagen, I got it from ebay for about £10(about $18 or 12euro). Yours looks real cool!

Hi all,

 

I've been looking all over for a thread for showing off ink and pen storage, and all I found were the ones in the photography section. Then someone pointed me to this thread because it turns out you all are talking about me here! ;) (Well, talking about my sketches, anyway. . . that's my "leafless in Seattle" up there.) So here's what I've been wanting to share -- this 19th century Japanese "shop box." I had been looking for quite some time for some sort of antique set of drawers like this, but the tricky part was that most had drawers that were too shallow to fit my rather large collection of Pilot Iroshizuku inks, whose bottles are a bit tall. More of the story on my blog: http://tina-koyama.blogspot.com/2014/09/wabi-sabi.html

Looks great!

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY
