Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Nothing old or awesome. Just my bottles.

Redonna, that photo shows very well, why so many people say Iroshizuku bottles are like perfume bottles. :thumbup:

This is a Victorian 1918 registered bottle of Fields ink which we dug up in the garden last year. It is a bit scratched up with being in the ground but interesting none the less!!

(If I was at all anthropomorphic, I might think that it had identified itself to me because I am a fountain pen and ink lover! :P )

The question being... which shelf of liquid cost more, the ink or the one below it full of liquor? ^_~

I think the Iroshizuku and MB inks still put the top shelf over the top as far as net worth. I really like the slivovitz bottles... so there really isn't as much down there as it appears...

Wow - this has been an awesome thread!

 

@Harly - I keep getting rid of the books. :) I now have inks stacked up behind inks. It's very sad. I had to use TWSBI boxes and apple keyboard boxes to stack the inks so you can see the ones on the rows behind :)

I have a slightly less distressed Field's Ink and Gum bottle, but I want it to feel at home, so it now has a place to rest on my desk, as do my Montblanc bottle and one of questionable origin.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen. 
    • A Smug Dill
      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o
    • adamselene
      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
