What a beautiful pen.

I'm not normally all that find of that style of celluloid, but the brown tones really sell this.

Whenever I look at new BAYARD offerings by Amateur, I expect these pens to eventually end up on your desktop :D

 

I have to admit that I`ve been tempted myself, especially because I don`t have any BAYARD`S from the early 30ies.

What prevented me from doing so is the smallness of this Lady`s Pen.

I have two similarly tiny Stylomines & they are too uncomfortably small - so no more Ladies pens for me.

So my guess, as you are lady :) , you don`t find them uncomfortable to write with?

Some of them are small, and while I am able to use them comfortably, I do prefer a larger more substantial pen, especially if I'm writing for a long period of time-- nothing unwieldy or heavy but something that's easier to grasp. Still, I cannot resist the beautiful celluloids, you know?

very nice catch betweenthelens :thumbup:

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

Absolutely! Good for you that I`m not trying to collect them :P

Mine are all on the small side, but I can write comfortably with them for a few pages.

I never post them!

      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
