Scriptorium pens



Scriptorium Pens (owner and pen turner: Renee Meeks)

If you want to get some nice pens in wood, ebonite or acrylics, have a look at Scriptorium Pens' offers - either Scriptorium Pen own models or custom models (your ideas, discussed with and brought to life by Renee).

from left to right
1. Idyll in Japanese autumn acrylics; Jowo #6
2. Custom pen design in "Tie Dye" acrylics; Bock #8, Titanium
3. Churchillized Epic in Illuminated Amber Tortoise (Acrylics); Jowo #8, Pendleton's Butterline Stub
4. Custom design in Snakewood wood; Jowo #6 EF-CI) (CI grind by @nibgrinder)
5. Custom design in Amboyna wood, Jowo #6, semiflex
6. Base pen is ebonite, aftermod midori tamenuri; Bock #8 CSI (CSI grind by @nibgrinder) - this black has a green aura, difficult to see - I will try to show it in a separate post - you can see the green at the threads.
7. Custom design in Camatillo wood, Bock #6 in Pt950, XXF grind by fpnibs - see 2 pictures below (these two pictures are copyright Scriptorium Pens).


 
 
The next pen is also a custom design, a double dip pen made from Ukrainian bog wood with two Argentium silver bands. One side has a stub nib while the other side is an EF. With this combination, I can easily judge the performance of an ink. The size of the pen is calculated that it fits into this tin box. I can take it with me when going to pen shows or pen meets.

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!
