wow! both of those are gorgeous!!!

 

What I love about this hobby is the sheer variety. What some would call gorgeous, others would call gaudy.. (and I'd say that about a lot of the pens in this thread heheh)

Platinum 3776 - F, Pilot Decimo - F, TWSBI Vac Mini - 1.1i

I think these 3 pens are the most beautiful out there:

 

1. Parker Sr. Duofold copper by Chris Thompson @ Thompson Pens

3. Parker Vacumatic Major Azure Blue

None of the pictures belong to me, just google them and upload to tinypic.

Edit: text got deleted

So here is my favorite pen watch and knife

I live them for being elegant and understated.

Simple and complex at the same time.

It may not be the prettiest pen but it is my favourite.

HttpMom showed us her Delta Scarlet Red Romeo and Juliet and I though it was very beautiful.

For me it's crystal clear: the Omas 75th anniversary Extra Lucens in black is the most beautiful fountain pen I have ever seen. I have always been partial to Italian pens in terms of design. They are not as consistently reliable as German and Japanese pens, but I think they make the most beautiful models.

To me, functionality and usability are part of what makes a fountain pen beautiful. So I would have say that, for me, it's the Pelikan M640 "Polar Lights":

This is a pen I like.

I tend to think simpler pens are more beautiful.

 

Parker 51 single jewel

 

Sheaffer translucent school pens, 1960s

 

Montblanc 144R, in bordeaux. A soft beauty.

I think this is the third time this pen is being mentioned here because heck it's just the ultimate pen porn. When I first saw pictures of this pen my jaw dropped to the floor. So beautiful, so expensive. The Visconti Opera Master Honey Cream mmmmmm I just want to taste it. :puddle:

Your LeBoeuf and Columbus 25 are amazing.

 

+1, but the Columbos 25 has my preference.

Congratulations.

 

I have several pens I consider beautiful.

Otherwise, one of my grail pen is one of the most beautiful pens, IMHO.

What about this stipula?

 

I have never been a fan of the cracked ice design, but this pen is gorgeous. Apparently a super limited edition. If I could put my hands on one...1345315120IMG_2200001.JPG

      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.

      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..

      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

      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
