This is a lighter from S. T. Dupont from the 1990s,  model "ligne D".

@yubaprof, you are right!

 

Do I get a prize for my correct answer? By the way, that is a very nice photo. The elegance of the objects in it is enhanced by your lighting and composition.

The prize will be next time

 

Thank you. The pen is very shiny, it is difficult to take a photo without having white spots on the bright parts of the photo.

  That’s a lovely pairing, @Tashi_Tsering! I love the slim pens from that time period. I should try to find a nice pipe lighter, but that’s probably for a different forum.

Thanks! I also like slim pens from the 70-80s, but as a collector. I prefer to use thicker pens.

  I’m the opposite, love writing with the slim, small pens, but l admire the large pens.

Got my green Jinhao 159 and it writes good from the very start.

Rare Streamlined Montblanc Meisterstuck L30 (1931-34) Push Knob Filler. 
 

The pen is in fair condition. I collect Montblanc pens, so I am very pleased with the purchase.

Beautiful.  That would make a dynamite reissue.

Not exactly today, but earlier in the week, although I only unboxed it on Saturday:

Stunning. Were my hands more skilled I’d invest in a Naginata nib. Alas, it would be like putting me in Hamilton’s race car, just wadded up in Turn 1 😉

That would be me with a super flex nib....  I don't even PRETEND to covet a Naginata nib....

  I ended up with a few new ones today after hanging out with my friends at the pen club. 
 

  First, I saw this little Salz at the PNW Pen Show, but I didn’t have a chance to take it home that day. Luckily, the exhibitor is a local friend, and so I was able to ask them to bring it to the next meeting for me. It’s the smallest of my mini pens, shown next to my M800 for reference:

 

  Then, my friend Stewart had a bunch of pens for sale, among them some beautiful Eversharp Skylines. I finally have a train pen, with a fine flexible nib to boot! 
 

 

    I was making my way around the room, not intending to get any more pens, but another member and I were looking at a safety pen that he was trying to fix, and he also had a few pens priced to sell. I ended up with a  blue cloissoné pen and a Waterman Red Ripple 52 1/2.

Wow, @A Smug Dill- what a gorgeous ebonite pen, worthy of that Naginata concorde nib.

Wow, That Salz is gorgeous.  😀👍  Gold Overlay?

You have such nice pens !!!!

Is that a wrap around nib on the blue one?  What brand is it?

  Thank you! The Salz is 18k overlay,  and the Cloissoné pen says “GSP”  on the clip, and <GS> on the nib, that has a similar construction to the Platinum Wing Flow nib.

I got a TWSBI Diamond Mini AL Grape with 1.1mm stub nib today. I filled it with Wearingeul’s F. Scott Fitzgerald The Great Gatsby ink, which was a gift from a friend.
