Well, here is my latest. There isn't much more I can say about Dexter seals that hasn't already been said many times (mostly by me, lol). Only two more to go in this series, but it will probably take me a couple more years. Then, I should be done. Should be. (yeah, right)

 

Dexter Rings and Seals

That is seriously cool, the detail in that seal is stunning. I've been considering getting into wax seals lately, and these pictures sure make it seem like a good idea.

The Highlander was a documentary, and the events happened in real time.

The seals are amazing, the details just breathtaking, I just wished they were not so expensive, although I totally understand the price.

The details on this seal are truly stunning--so crisp they leap off the wax toward you! Thanks for posting these pictures--great encouragement for those of us getting more interested in a seal(s) of our own.

Put away $10 a week and in a year... It can be done. And I can't see anyone who loves seals ever regretting getting one from Dexter. Truly works of art. I just got one a few weeks ago and love it!

 

The harder part is settling on the design you want!

Incredible detailing!

All I've ever done were some Chinese characters and little carvings.

That's just cool.

      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
