New Pen Day: Leonardo Momento Zero Confettini
Did I reduce my pen collection and receive a brand new pen in the same week? Yes, I sure did! It isn’t great, but in my defence, I preordered this pen before my clear out, and it’s an absolute beauty, so I’m not going to feel too bad about it! So introducing my new beauty:… Read more

Reducing and Reorganising my Fountain Pen Collection
I bought my first fountain pen in October 2023, and from there, fell down the rabbit hole. In that time I’ve bought a lot of pens, and so I decided that now, three years in, I should probably reassess my collection. Looking back over my pens I found that a majority of my purchases were… Read more

My Stationery Origin Story
For me, my lifelong love of stationery is bound up with my lifelong love of writing. I was an avid reader as a child, and this eventually morphed into a wish to tell my own stories. I wasn’t too picky about the stationery I used as a kid, it was just a tool to capture… Read more

Review: Pelikan M200 Copper Rose Gold Fountain Pen
Despite being a beloved brand in the fountain pen community, I have to admit, I’ve never been overly interested in Pelikan pens. Whilst I like their general profile, I find most of their colourways (eg. all the stripes and tortoiseshell) a little boring, and not my style. However, if there’s one thing that’s going to… Read more

If I Could Only Keep 10 Fountain Pens…
I have a pretty large collection of fountain pens at this point (around 76 pens!), and I really enjoy having a lot of variety to choose from. However, I have seen a few people online doing this ‘ten pen’ exercise, and thought it would be fun to do – theoretically only of course! So if… Read more

Review: Asvine V126 Fountain Pen
I have a few Asvine fountain pens now, and have generally been really impressed by the quality for the price (the C80, in particular, I love!). The V126 has therefore been on my pen wishlist for a while, and I’m excited to have finally got my hands on one. As with a lot of Asvine… Read more

New Pen Day: Esterbrook Estie Bubblegum Pink
A while ago I bought my first Esterbrook Estie, which was the CoffeeMonsterzCo collaboration pen. I love my original Estie, and it’s super comfortable to write with, but for a steel-nibbed pen, I do feel like the Estie is quite pricey, so I hadn’t planned on buying a second one. But I love a pink… Read more

![Do I really need every colour of [insert pen brand here]?](https://inkyimaginings.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/9832c460-705f-474f-baa3-2abf29b4fe12.jpg?w=1024)
Do I really need every colour of [insert pen brand here]?
A couple of months ago Lamy revealed their 2026 Lamy Al-Star colours, Pine and Flamingo. More recently TWSBI released the Eco in Bahama Yellow, and Kaweco released the Sport in Lunar Shadow Green. I have three Lamy Safaris and a Lamy Lx, seven TWSBI Ecos and eight Kaweco Sports. I absolutely DO NOT need any… Read more
