Waiting for an autumn pen


I not only wait for my Lotus pen - I wait for autumn too. Humidity and temperature are lower and I also like the colours of autumn - see here a time-lapse view - autumn pictures taken in Japan. LINK


I also wait to reach the top of the waiting list at Scriptorium Pens.


Fortune said that reaching the top spot will be a little bit earlier than the autumn colours in Japan.

So I can have a pen in these autumn colours - for autumn. (Fingers crossed that it will work out.)


My idea is to get an Idyll from Scriptorium Pens. Link to Renée Meeks' Idyll HP.

How the pen will exactly look like can only be decided when I am the top of the waiting list - 1-2 more months to wait. But the pen seems to be ready for the autumn season.

I don't need a clip.

I plan to have a JoWo #6 18K in F.

There are four pen sizes available - see chart below. My preferred pen size is the MB149. That would be a medium but I will see how the Lotus pen feels like - which would be a Large.


Waiting is awful - sometimes.

Waldmann Pen's catalogs 2008-2025

The company Waldmann Pens exists since more than 100 years. Due to destruction of the Waldmann factory including the archives during WWII, all information before this event is lost. After the death of the founder in 1964, the owner changed several times until in 2007, the recent owner, Stefan Schnirch, took over. And only since his start, catalogs of the produced models exist. You can see and download the catalogs from 2008 until 2025 from my Goggle Drive. I got permission from Mr. Schnirch to offer them here. GoogleDrive

Silver pens

  Just be cautious to know the difference between the different silver types if you buy a silver pen - I use some lines from Wikipedia - do not claim I could say it better.   Real silver Fine silver  is 99.9% pure silver. Argentium silver  (patented in 1998) is a brand of modern tarnish-resistant silver alloys, containing either 93.5%, 94% or 96% silver. Argentium alloys replace some of the copper in the traditional sterling silver (92.5% silver + 7.5% copper) with the metalloid germanium. Argentium 935, Argentium 940 and Argentium 960 alloys exceed the standard required for hallmarking as sterling silver, and Argentium 960 silver meets the standard for hallmarking as Britannia silver (95.84% silver). Silvadium, Sterlium  is 93% silver, and other metals Sterling silver  is an alloy composed by weight of 92.5% silver and 7.5% other metals, usually copper. The sterling silver standard has a minimum millesimal fineness of 925.   and then there i...

"Gemini pens"

 It's play time. I asked Gemini to create some fountain pens. Unfortunately, Gemini still has some problems in creating a fountain pen. I am still working on how to make reliably such a pen with Gemini. The problem could be with my prompts or it could be on the Gemini side. Nevertheless - enjoy!
