Ha ha ha! Yes! I call it 1972 Honda Civic Orange! It's FABULOUS!

 

 

Also, the MB Hemingway, which is more of a pumpkin color. But orange, pumpkin... these are colors easily found in supermarkets. Especially in October.

I'm a huge fan of the color orange. (I even have an orange car.) Here are a couple quick pictures of most of the orange pens in my collection.

 

Regards, greg

 

Orange car? Wouldn't happen to be an Element, would it? I drive an orange E.

 

Love the pen collection!!

I generally keep my sample sheets in my flickr photostream (and also post them in the comparison scans).

 

I need to do another set, but I was going to wait until I had the next ink batch to do it. I have a few additions and a whole bunch of subtractions.

Great photos, everyone! I love orange pens, too :D

 

I recently acquired a Monteverde Riviera in orange that is so bright it would knock your socks off!

Not sure if they've been mentioned before, but there is an Aurora Ipsilon that comes in an orange colour, and a Sheaffer "No Nonsense" cartridge-filler that came in dark orange as well....

Gosh those are some nice orange pens. I love the color orange. I recently bought the Retro 51 in clementine because it was such a bright sherbety orange - and not too expensive either, around $40 or so.

So what pens come in orange and look good in it?

 

I keep orange ink in these orange pens:

  • Sheaffer NoNonsense/Viewpoint, translucent neon-orange, medium nib.
  • Pelikan Grand Prix, Grey-Orange

I also know that these orange pens exist and I am considering buying some of them:

  • Lamy Flame (medium) (discontinued)
  • Libelle Autumn Leaves (At least at isellpens.com)
  • Tombow Object
  • Pelikan Pelikano (orange, fine)
  • Parker Frontier (Dawn GT, fine)
  • Aurora Ipsilon Satin (Lobster Orange, medium)
  • Monteverde Riviera Gala Orange (medium)
  • Retro 51 Scriptmaster II (Clementine) (medium)
  • Pelikan "Souverän" M 320 (medium)
  • Krone Kristal Topaz
  • Conklin All American Collection Orange Spice

I have the satin in blue, I quite like it. I've been considering the orange as well.

If you're looking for something moderately priced, Laban has a pen called the Boneto in 'Sunny Orange' resin. I personally have not purchased a Laban pen (yet), but I've read good things . . .

Several people have mentioned the Dolce Vita Oversize, and I agree this must be near the top of the list, especially when filled with nice matching ink!

Now I like Orange pens! :headsmack:

The Pelikan Shanghai is my vote for an interesting orange.

I have the aforementioned orange LE VP, and it is just a stunning orange color. It is filled w/ Diamine Orange also. But, I also have a Libelle Vortex. http://www.goldspot.com/fpngallery/LB-3106OS_sm.jpg

 

Very pretty pen, though not completely orange. The gray swirls are very unusual and striking. It is filled w/ PR Orange Crush.
