Just had this pen repaired and enjoying using it. Anyone know what the colour is? Sorry the picture is not very good.

If that is gray and white, it is called "Storm"

I believe this particular color was called "Cracked Ice".

Cracked ice is blocks of black with white veins around them, although I have never understood why it isn't 'reversed cracked ice' which is blocks of light colours with black veins

I think Quartz White is a strong contender. Does it not have the colour code number engraved on it?

I chose my user name years ago - I have no links to BBS pens (other than owning one!)

David,

Does the material look like the acrylic used in this Filcao Atlantica? This May have been a test blank developed by Mazzuchelli and evaluated for use in the Montblanc Oscar Wilde, which ultimately went with a slightly different variety.

The number is very feint but I ‘think’ it’s 114/800. Does that sound right?

      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..

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
