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]?
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

New Pen Day: Scribe Pens Unicorn Nugget Fountain Pen
One of my stationery goals for 2026 was to buy no more than 10 fountain pens, and it’s now the 8th of February and I’m already up to 2, so I need to be careful! But I really couldn’t resist my latest pen purchase, and as a handmade pen it’s unique, so I knew if… Read more

Review: Jinhao 20 Fountain Pen
A while ago I reviewed the Jinhao 10, a budget-friendly retractable fountain pen in the style of the Pilot Vanishing Point. I was really impressed with the quality and performance of the pen for the price, so when I saw the Jinhao 20, I didn’t hesitate to buy it. The Jinhao 20 is Jinhao’s answer… Read more

Review: Asvine C80 Fountain Pen
Prior to buying the Asvine C80, I’d tried two different models of Asvine pen (the P20 and P50) and had been very impressed with the quality and the writing experience for the relatively low price. And I’m glad to report that I’ve had the same experience with the C80 – this is another Asvine pen… Read more
