My most recent :bunny01:

 

I just got the email from NL saying my birthday pen has been picked up by FedEx and will be here next week! I did not expect it that fast so I ordered it 2 months ahead of the bday... after watching all the delays with nib swaps I was worried how long it might take. Pleasantly surprised.

 

What? Oh yeah, inspired by Tom Kellie's thread I've got a Rose Gold 149 O3B coming for this year's treat (inspired? ha, I've lusted after this pen since the beginning of the year)

Wow that nib looks good!

I recently bought a bottle of Shakespere and am looking forward to cracking it open!

It's got fabulous shading with the OB nib, and the colour is exactly red velvet :)

Beautiful pen, well-done photograph, and inspiring writing sample, Stitchpunk

 

May you continue to enjoy your Boheme with OB.

Thanks, I'm pretty sure this pen is going to be an EDC for me so I can enjoy it a LOT. Not the most practical perhaps, but I couldn't possibly leave such a beautiful nib and perfect fit for my hand sitting at home all day!

After rounding out my wife's Starwalker set as part of our upcoming anniversary, we picked up a few items and received the book as a gift from the local MB boutique.

Reading that the nice gift made to Cliff O was filled whith Saint Exupéry Montblanc's ink made me want to let you read this beautiful thought from the French author and poet.

Hello friends,

 

Earlier last month I had the good fortune of picking up a really nice specimen of the Montblanc Masters for Meisterstuck L'Aubrac. I didn't get the opportunity to share nice pictures with you and so I have finally gotten the opportunity to take some more.

Then yesterday I visited a boutique I don't usually frequent and found this piece offered at a whopping 50% discount. Despite it initially not being on my radar, I felt that it was too tempting and decided to go for it. I am happy I did because when I took it home I felt that it was really special :)

 

The Montblanc Masters for Meisterstuck Moon Pearl

Here you can see the Raden artwork changing colors depending on the light. I was fascinated by the Namiki Maki-e Moonlight Raden lately and missed an opportunity on one, guess I was fortunate to be gifted something similar by Montblanc at the end

Sigh, another great pen and deal not found by me. :(

 

Congratulations Pravda. I would not have passed on that Moon Pearl deal either. I hope you enjoy it. I found it to be a stunning pen in person. I do wish it had a #9 nib, but for the price you paid I could be quite happy with the pen. Is it sue for a nib swap?

Also, that pen tray is quite a nice inclusion compared to most useless packaging from MB.
