If You Could Wish For A Pen...

[zzbr76]

If you could wish for a pen, any pen, which pen would you go for? Like if it were a shop that sold free pens with customised nibs and all of that, which pen would you go for and with what bling-bling on it or customisation?

 

My choice would be a big fat eyedropper spencerian Danitrio Genkai with gold inlay and a maki-e consisting of, I dunno, a duck floating on cosmos or a samurai and a geisha getting it together or a moon with one eye blinking to you or a Samurai Luis Suarez biting off the moon just to score a goal... Some of these, a ridiculous handmade pen worth 15.000$-20.000$, that was like any other japanese pen 600$-700$, but with prettier pictures on it.

_{I have pretty much got my favourite pens all ready, but I have long had a dream of designing my own pen...}

Living and born in the midst of beautiful rural Denmark I enjoy the magnificient view from my windows over green tree tops, hills and distant corn fields - where the corners of the world seem to meet and where the heavenly sky almost touches the earth, stricken with reverent silence; where human structures enlighten the night like lanterns and disappear by sunrise; and where the sunset every day paints the celestrial spheres from another ancient palette: gold and blue and pink and red and purple and even green. The Moon is the same old Moon as everywhere and always on Earth - and the sky is always eternally new, like nowhere and never before.

Dreaming to catch it all, the sky and the earth and the thoughts, is my fountain pen - although the colours of the ink and the words that if forms merely reflect the beauty of life, mirroring its greatness at best, failing to catch its true nature, but anyhow sometimes strangely presenting it's very essence as if it flowed directly from it's veins. Run, not by a hand hardly more knowledgeable than itself, but by life itself. Freely like the waves of the ocean until broken by the shore; ink on paper. The limitless to the limit. Transcendence flung on finity. The colours of this world upon the sky; the thoughts of mankind on a sheat of paper. Revelation!

For a moment now, I just wished I had a pen like you mentioned and that I was able to ship it to you, just to make you happy for one fraction of a second. Unfortunately I don't have a 149, I used to, but now I only have two pens left in my collection

I have a double layer of very thick curtains in my bed room and still the light gets in. I really prefer winters and I have seriously thought of leaving for Norway... I love Ibsen, by the way!

Funny you should say that! Yesterday evening I was just strolling with my GF and I was telling her I couldn't find anywhere the complete plays of Ibsen. I was just telling her, I found Ibsen in my high-school library ten years ago and that I was looking for a complete Ibsen restlessly. You just threw Ibsen in your conversation and it hit me like a coincidence. You know Ibsen's last word, supposedly, was "Tvertimod!" - on the contrary!

Well, if you don't have the solid gold 149, the heck with it. Anyway, I already have a plain old black 149. How about a solid silver version?

I've been going off fountain pens and buying pens lately and even if I had a £250-300 for a Parker Duofold in checked amber or £500 for a Yard O Led Grand Viceroy I probably wouldn't appreciate the way I once would have.

 

Yeah it would nice to have flashy gold encrusted pen however I'm starting to wonder what would be.

- That would be a good reason for learning Danish and Norwegian by the way. I don't know much about translated versions. Getting two examples of the plays and reading them together is a lot of fun, by the way.

You're (bleep) right! Best answer ever! It's like you went and caught a crocodile and made a fancy purse out of him in a couple of seconds. Cliché, you aussie!

Like we are on the same page. Hi-5.

 

Unfortunately, reality is different, so I need to be picky. Haha. - and for that purpose currently I am addicted to Sheaffer.
