Just inked two pens πΈ The TWSBI Precision pen in gun metal is new and writes like a dream. It is metal and not resin like many TWSBI pens so it wonβt have the issues with the resin crumbling. It is, however, not particularly heavy.
The Wearingeul βFrankensteinβ ink is stunning: purple with a faint green shimmer!
Done engaging in #FountainPenDay2025 commerce. I feel all giddy and anxious, thanks brain!
I splurged on a pen boxed set that #PenChalet has on sale for today and applied a 10% #FountainPenDay discount as well. Monteverdeβs pen shaped homage to Piet Mondrianβs Broadway Boogie-Woogie. Itβs a limited edition and comes in a lovely box with a bottle of ink with a label that also references the artwork. I chose the flex nib for it.
Mondrian is one of my favorite artists. @christi3k once sent me a postcard of this piece of artwork from NYC, postmarked on my birthday. Iβve been eyeing this pen set ever since I first saw it.
No deals on the #DiamineInk I wanted from the black edition (2024) of the #InkventCalendar, but Iβm happy to have found the three I wanted full bottles of.
Shout-out to that one time I got a Diamine Inkvent calendar and ended up with WAY TOO MUCH FUCKING FOUNTAIN PEN INK, even after giving away nearly half to an artist friend.
Just inked another fountain pen πΈ This is an Asvine P20 which flows freely and writes smoothly. The ink is from last yearsβ Diamine inkvent calendar.
And yes, I now have far too many fountain pens inked so I have to write with them all a little each day to prevent them from drying out π€£
Inked up my Pelikan fountain pen with Chilly Night star bright ink πΈ It is tricky because it is full of sparkle but this Pelikan deals well with star bright ink.
