Boheme Variations, Especially Citrine And Amethyst


bbs

Recommended Posts

Dear All, I've recently discovered how wonderful these little pens are - how many variations of style and coloured stone are there?

 

I'm particularly interested in getting one with a citrine or amethyst, but can only find references to three with citrine - the jewelled, the doue ligne and the one with circles on the cap - and just the lilac pirouette and jewelled for the amethyst. Were they ever produced as plain black models?

,

And is the rose gold version available only with the marron smoky topaz? I think that would have looked stunning with a citrine ....

 

I really think Montblanc is missing a trick with these little beauties!

The stones sometimes fall out of the clips over time with use. Maybe buy a black one and have a jeweler put in the stone you want? Just an idea.

If you want less blah, blah, blah and more pictures, follow me on Instagram!

Many thanks, Michael, most helpful. The steel amethyst is now on my wish list!

 

Best wishes, Sue

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
