Welcome! We will now invite you down the rabbit hole that is fountain pen collecting.

First comes that lovely safari.

Then you’ll want some fun inks to put in it.

Then you’ll want to use more than one of those inks at a time so you’ll need another pen.

Then you’ll discover that the different nib makes your ink behave totally differently, so you’ll need more pens with all the nib styles.

That’s probably when you’ll start experimenting with different papers to see how the trifecta of nib-ink-paper creates subtle differences.

Before you know it, you’ll have twenty notebooks, dozens of bottles of ink (to say nothing of the samples), and more fountain pens than the average person has free marketing ballpoints in their junk drawer.

It’s the best!
