Papier Plume Ivy Green

[boundedrationality]

Hi FPN! I was recently in the Crescent City on vacation and of course, I managed to find the pen shop...

Papier Plume is an amazing little store that sells its own calligraphy and fountain pen inks in sizes that range from $5-$12, so very affordable. I was tempted by their amazing pen collection but somehow managed to exhibit enough self control to leave with only one bottle of ink: "Ivy Green".

Below is my review (I can't draw, please forgive the fleur). I don't have a scanner available to me, but I think I got a pretty clear picture of the paper. Also, your roommate tends to look at you funny when she comes home from work and you're at the kitchen table rubbing Bombay Sapphire and Nail Polish remover on a piece of paper with your index finger, FYI.

Overall, I would really recommend it. You can find their website here and they have an online catalog: https://www.papierplume.com/

Thanks! I have been interested in their inks for a while now, and it's good seeing a review.

I always stop there when I'm in N.O. Nice people, good products.

They are! They were very nice and exceedingly patient with me when I wanted to try different pens/inks! Next time I'm back I'll stop by again.

These are new to me. Thanks for the review. This green looks great! I may have to order some ink to try!

Thanks for the review. Just don't use the Nail Polish Remover in your Gin and Tonics.
