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.
