I wish I would have known about the Sailor Cocktail Series pens, years ago. The Sailor Blue Lagoon is one of the prettiest pens I've ever seen and apparently a whole lot of people felt the same way, because that beauty is gone for good. Luckily Tequila Sunrise was not. I think it's safe to … Continue reading Sailor Cocktail Series: Tequila Sunrise
I've been on a major Sailor kick lately. I've written with a large selection of pens, and there are always two brands that really stand out to me. One of which is Sailor. When I found out that Sailor did these special edition collaborations with other brands, my mind was immediately blown. And I cried … Continue reading Sailor Pen Point Blue Hawaii
So I love pens. I love writing with them and drawing with them, plain and simple. But finding the right flex pen I've learned is quite difficult. Having used calligraphy dip pens for some time, I've become very picky when it comes to flex nibs. If it doesn't make that ultra thin line on the … Continue reading Why The Conklin Duraflex Fountain Pen Isn’t For Me
I love any company that will offer up a free ink with the purchase of a pen. And thats what the Birmingham Pen Company was doing when I purchased this orange delight. It's true, there's nothing I love more than a sale, but that wasn't the only reason for purchasing the Liquid Hot Magma Pen. … Continue reading Birmingham Pen Company – The Liquid Hot Magma Fountain Pen
So I was looking for a Urushi Pen, but I didn't just want any old one, lol. (As if any Urushi pen could be anything less than stellar regardless of where it came from). What I mean is, I wanted one that was custom, and handmade. There are two small pen companies that I've come … Continue reading Review: Urushi Emperor Fountain Pen by Artus Pens
The Twsbi Eco was my very first demonstrator pen. The idea that a pen can change color with new ink, warms my fickle heart. So Twsbi is a pen brand that I like to keep up with. I saw the Twsbi Go launch on their instagram page and I thought it looked cute, fun, and … Continue reading Review: Twsbi GO!
If I could talk about a stroke of luck, I would put this pen on the very top of my list. Sailor pens to me, are like a constant treasure hunt, they hide they're most interesting pens on remote Japanese websites that you have to search for. Which is where I found this pen. Instagram … Continue reading Sailor MitaClub Original – Shooting Star of Jonuma Fountain Pen
I am slowly but surely going to test all of the nibs that Franklin-Christoph makes. I am the biggest fan of the Needlepoint nib, so it was only natural for me to try this one too. This is when practicing with the Pilot Parallel comes in handy. Not that you really need to use this … Continue reading The Music Nib by Franklin-Christoph
I'm more of a Modern Calligraphy type gal, I've had a dip pen in some form or another since I was a kid. Gothic Calligraphy on the other hand has always been an art form I appreciated at a distance, mostly because I really didn't know where to begin if I wanted to attempt it. … Continue reading Practicing With The Pilot Parallel Pen
After having bought and loved the Moonman M2, the Moonman mini was a must try. And since I was going on vacation, what better time to test it out? While capped it really is a tiny pen that fits in the palm of your hand. Although posted it elongates a little bit, it's still only … Continue reading Review: Moomman Mini Wancai
