My one and only ever Lamy is sitting unloved and uninked on a pen stand on my desk waiting to be rehomed.

Just off the coast of Tassie, Paul, there's a bunch of islands where old, unloved, Lamy's, can come to die, oops! I mean can frolic freeee, in the breeze, and the sunshine and long white clouds! 😄

Islands? Long white clouds?

 

Surely, you speak of the land across the Tasman that is home to great ruggers and poor cricketers.

The very same! Although since the great plague of 2020 they all disappeared! Seems like all, (ruggers, leaguers and cricketers), have moved over to the Gold Coast!

I'm living in a little shack on an orchard, with 'Abel Tasman National Park' at the bottom of the garden.

I wish this was my Lamy 😄

Oh, pretty. Do you know the color name?

Hi Misfit, you made my day!😊 Thank you, I glad you like the colour too. It's great to share the moment with someone.

Oh..and the arrival of the pens was pretty awesome too!

All well cleaned and freshly filled, (FP) with Lamy crystal Topaz, (RB) with a standard M63 refill. Both working perfectly!

 

I used one of the pics from the auction site so I can't vouch for their accuracy. FPN members have such a great eye for colour!

 

I would be willing to go out on a limb and say, "Rubin Black" Special Edition 2008. (Milk chocolate, brown, bronze shade). It is closely related to Topaz ink which I happened to have already.

 

Does that sound right to you?

 

So odd to find this colour 12/13 years after release and as a pair.

I wanted to find a dedicated and well performing ink for my fourth, Lamy 'studio' and Lamy Topaz was far too intense, (saturated?) for me!

 

Today I have found my ideal match for the recent arrival.

Now two favourites are together. I have loved the nuanced shading and performance of, J Herbin, Cacao du Bresil for many years. The "Black Ruby", 'studio', filled with this ink is a complete winner!

 

Others pilgrims will have tread these weary paths before me, no doubt, but I am sharing 'my happiness' in 'my pen community' today. I am well pleased.

How interesting! How did you get those prototypes? I have the regular version which I like a lot.

Mine was bought used, but I think it was the Special colour from 2019.

Will work for pens... :unsure:

Ah, thanks--a very striking color in the photo.

Three - a Lamy 27e inked with a mystery turquoise ink (could be one of four, I'll try to work it out at some point), Lamy ABC with 'A' nib, inked with Rohrer & Klingner Marlene, and Lamy 2000 (Bauhaus Edition) inked with Lamy Petrol.

Safari in ‘Charcoal’/‘Umbra’, with an EF nib.
Inked with Sailor Kiwa Guro.
This ink’s blackness, water-resistance, and thinness of line are all desirable when sending postcards. Especially when one is as egregiously-prolix as I am :blush:

Foul in clear conditions, but handsome in the fog.

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
