I was delighted last year to discover https://kiroku.de/. While they don't sell #fountainpens or FP ink, they sell beautiful and fun stationery that would appeal to a many of us. Lots of things made by small artists.
Earlier this year I bought a 2nd Pilot CH 912 with the FA nib. It's one of my favourite so I wanted to have two filled with different inks. Interestingly, the newer one is actually even more flexible and much wetter (no need to install an ebonite feed like I did with the first one). I wonder if Pilot changed something or if it was a lucky fluke. Anyone else have a similar experience? #fountainpen
A few days ago I about Scrittura Elegante going out of business. I'm very sad to see them go because they introduced so many unusual #fountainpen products to Europe. The sale is on, and things are going fast. I highly recommend the Wearingeul Inks and Jacquere swatch cards. Also Dominant Industry inks. https://www.scrittura-elegante.nl/
#FPQuestion of the day:
Have you worked on improving your handwriting? What was the impact of fountain pens on your handwriting? What resources do you recommend for people interested in improving their handwriting? #FountainPen
@penfount Fountain pens didn't really affect the appearance of my writing, but they did cure my "death grip". As a result, I no longer get hand cramps, and now I enjoy writing.
