Ink ! Pens ! Oh My !

I usually only post three days a week
but
look what just came in the mail.
Inks and new pens.
So beautiful !



Heavy glass bottles of ink.
Pelikan Ink Of The Year, Turmaline/Red Velvet
Pilot Ink Autumn Showers
Pilot Ink Bamboo Forest


Beautiful inks and bottles.


Just look at the back of the bottle.


New pens. Both feel wonderful in my hand
Prera green pen (favorite color) clear body.
Platinum Shoji -ko (Lake Shoji) limited edition clear body pen.
This pen has a light blue transparent body, like the morning light reflected on Lake Shoji.
The second lake pen based on Mount Fuji's Five Lakes.
Beautiful to look at and to use.
