This is an Epitome Emerald from @epitomepens . I s This is an Epitome Emerald from @epitomepens . I started making a video about it a couple of weeks ago, but unfortunately, I couldn't finish it before leaving on an extended trip tomorrow, so I thought I'd just post a couple of pictures here for now. This is an American Acrylic version of the pen, which is all sold out now, I think, but there are others.Anyway, it's absolutely gorgeous; a little smaller than I expected, but not too small. The nib feels like a Kanwrite. #fountainpen #fountainpens #indianpens

This beauty is a #delmoon VIP Eggshell, from @delm This beauty is a #delmoon VIP Eggshell, from @delmoonpen from India. Wonderfully made with a first-rate nib, for about $160 USD plus shipping. For those who follow me on YouTube, I posted a video about this pen today! Also deserving of a shoutout here is @kaagazi , who supplied the amazing notebooks that are the backgrounds for most of these photos (I love that orange leather cover under the first shot!). I'd have done a dozen videos about them by now, if they were still in operation... it was so sad to see them close up shop.
If you haven't seen my most recent YouTube video y If you haven't seen my most recent YouTube video yet... I got this ink in the old-style Sailor vase bottle at the @angers_kyoto , and it's called "kantarelli", which is the Finnish for "chanterelle" mushrooms. This was the last ink that I bought on my trip to Japan, and it has wonderful shading. #sailorink #angersbureau #angers_kyoto #fountainpen #fountainpenink #fountainpeninks #inkreview #inkunuma
After only buying one ink in Nagoya, I bought two After only buying one ink in Nagoya, I bought two of these gorgeous bottles online. These cut glass bottles are from @mitasanshodo and are reason enough to buy the ink, but the ink is equally good: wonderfully fragrant and silky smooth to write with... and the Sumi ink has amazing bronze/gold sheen! I just posted a YouTube video about these, if you want more details. #mitasanshodo #fountainpen #fountainpens #fountainpenink #ink #inkreview #cutglass #fountainpenaddict #japaneseink #lilac

Maybe the most awesome sheening ink I've ever seen Maybe the most awesome sheening ink I've ever seen: green sheen AND purple sheen, at the same time! This bottle is "Indigo Blue", a Sailor ink sold exclusively at #shosaikan in Tokyo. Pretty amazing. I posted a video about this ink today on YouTube 🙂 #sailorink #sailorpen #ink #inkthusiast #fountainpen #fountainpens #fountainpenink #fountainpeninks #shosaikan @shosaikan_aoyama_official shosaikan_aoyama_official
And this one is from the #itoya in Ginza. This is And this one is from the #itoya in Ginza. This is in the "Edo Mouse" series of inks, and it called "Mouse Red". I've been told that the "Mouse" designation refers to dull or earthy-toned colors, dating from a period in history when commoners were not allowed to wear bright colors. This one has some good strong shading, and the color is a nice brown burgundy. #itoyaginza #tokyoinklings #itoya #fountainpen #fountainpens #fountainpenink #tagstationery #inkinkink
