Peek-a-boo ⚓️

I sometimes have to remind myself that hoarding discontinued inks is pointless if I don’t actually use them.

Really enjoying Life bank paper as an alternative to Tomoe River for letter writing. The Life paper is denser than TR, and slightly more textured, but still shows off sheen nicely.

Three beautiful inks.

Swabbing.

Beautiful color. #fountainpen #tomoeriver

Sunny day at the coffee shop. There are lots of contenders, but for me, the Aurora 88 might have the most elegant lines of any pen. #fountainpen

More #sailor sheen. This time, Oku-yama on Life paper. #fountainpen #fpgeeks

Pro Gear and @nagasawa_st Kobe #14 on @lifestationery. Nice combo. #fountainpen #fpgeeks
