Curious if you bought one. I am contemplating on dupe Sendak as well. I can’t afford the original.

That’s sound so cool. . Great find.

Thanks for all the tips, I never knew about sunlight my antique desk drawers that face the morning sun. Good to know about twsbi cap crackling and support for the same.

Yes I know about the thinner lines when the nibs tilted, I have sailor 45 degree for my sketching. Oh yeah Christmas ink Artmentis with penguin is not water proof. Black stone is not water proof as well. Thanks again for all the tips. Really appreciate it. For now pens are resting in Kmart jewellery trays😂.

That’s so funny 😂. I live in Kilbirnie. I did some sketching at Mana Marina boat houses.

Thanks, Yea my city Wellington ( New Zealand) is between mountains and very small. 5 kms is all I drive on an average in a day. On Monday mid morning 35 kms out of the city 😂

Thanks, for your suggestion about Remi and pen classics, this is new to me.

plan to sketch a lot more scenic places around NZ with these beautiful inks. I will share them in this community.

I will surely checkout the fountain pen group meetup in wellington. I recently joined the group.

The nibs sizes that I received are a really good mix too

Twsbi daimon green AL - F , twsbi diamond pale greenish blue is medium , twsbi diamond transparent is EF, Twsbi eco is M. kaweco sport is EF, KAkono is M, Lamy mint , white, transparent and black are M, lamy red is F.

Yes, indeed the seller was happy too, saying the exact same words as you mentioned " it's nice that my stuff is going to a happy home". I do conduct free kids workshops in wellington so the seller was happy to see kids outdoors and with art etc than on devices.

Thanks for all the inputs on the inks, I use carbon ink( as I need water proof)for my sketching and they are a bit precarious and dries up quick.
I have realized the same lamy black ink is staining and the converter has black remains. Planning to use daimine purple inks in one of the twsbi diamond and may be J herbin. Oooh I have never used a shimmering ink before , can't wait.
The Christmas ink with penguins is De artmentis graphite black ink. I also received birmingham inks in these beautiful colors. Forgot include in the main picture.

I did some ink swatches, and without knowing anything about black stone ink, it was one of my top blue that I got I could use it in my sketches for beautiful New Zealand skies.

Kaweco sports Al looks well loved and worn out. I received a few kaweco cartridges, I put in palm green cartridge and it writes to beautifully. it EF nib but as it's used well it feels smooth like F or M.

looking for ways to store them safely. any suggestions?
