Happy TWSBI Pre-Order Day! The TWSBI Diamond ALR “Sunset Yellow” is now available for pre-order! Hopefully they will be in stock and ready to ship early next week. We’ve also restocked on much of our paper over the past few weeks, in anticipation of summer ending and everyone heading back to school and back to work! Brands that are fully stocked include Clairefontaine, Stalogy, Midori, Lochby, and other favorites. Finally, I figured I would go ahead and post a group shot of remaining Hinze Pens to give you all a sense of what materials are still available for purchase. If you see a specific pen you are interested in, or a predominant color, send me a message to let me know after you place your order. All pens ship with a bottle of the limited edition “Summer Sangria” ink and a red or black nib.
Some stock I have remaining: check out the variation in the material. The pens on the left have tighter swirls of color, the ones in the middle and to the right progressively have larger amounts of single colors (typically either the burgundy/maroon or grey).
DC Pen Show Pickup Options for Next Week - What’s Available to Travel
Next week we will be at the D.C. Pen Show and sharing some limited table space with our friends at Vanness Pens. While I will have a few items available for sale on site, including what if anything is left of the Hinze Pen Collaboration, I am happy to bring any items to the show for delivery. Please be aware that extremely heavy orders (i.e., multiple thick notebooks) may not be possible, but most pens and inks, as well as reasonable paper orders, will be fine. If you’d like to place an order for DC delivery, simply select “local pickup” at checkout and message me to let me know which day you plan to pick up at the show (Friday, Saturday, or Sunday). I hope to see as many of you as possible there!
The Gentleman Stationer is an authorized retailer of all brands sold.
TWSBI Diamond 580 ALR “Sunset Yellow” (Pre-Order). If TWSBI were looking to solidify their status as one of my favorite all-around brands, they certainly did themselves a big favor with this last release. Whoa. I’ve found the recent string of yellow and orange pens stunning. We’ve placed our shop order and the pens should arrive early next week.
Clairefontaine Triomphe Notebooks. Triomphe writing pads and writing paper is one of the best-selling products that we stock, and now Clairefontaine has made the paper available in notebook form! Triomphe A5 softcover notebooks are available in lined or blank formats, with white or ivory paper - both equally fountain pen friendly.
Perforated Paper from Clairefontaine! I may need to revisit at least one of my #21penquestions responses: If there’s a product I wish existed, it would be more notebooks with perforated pages. This week we added to the shop “Pupitre” bound tablets, “Forever” recycled notebooks (which are still fountain pen friendly), and My.Essentials A5 Journals (which have a small number of perforated pages at the back.
Maruman Mnemosyne Notebooks and Notepads. Speaking of perforations, the Maruman Mnemosyne pads and notebooks also feature perforated paper.
Lochby Covers and Cases. One brand that I will be bringing with me to the D.C. Pen Show is Lochby, and we recently restocked on all colors of the Field Journal, Quattro four-pen cases, and Venture Pouch!
Midori Kurashiki Canvas Pen and Pencil Pouches. Going through my stock as I prepare for D.C., it turns out that I have a few more of these in-stock that I had forgotten to re-enter following the Arkansas Show in the Spring. Both flat and gusseted cases are still available!
Anderillium Ink Restock! All of the Cephalopod and Avian series inks are back in stock, including favorites American Goldfinch Yellow, Green Kingfisher Green, and more.
New iLootPaperie Washi Tape! In addition to restocking favorites, we have some new washi tapes that arrived this week, including some new wide-format Snail-mail washi and “dark” envelopes!
Stalogy Notebooks/Planners. We have the full selection of A5 Stalogy Planners/notebooks in both dot grid and graph rulings, including limited edition covers from the past two years! Stalogy notebooks come in 1/2 year or 365-day sizes, and are designed to serve as a day-to-a-page notebook but are undated so the layout is quite flexible.
Stalogy Removable Calendar Stickers. These stickers allow you to add a calendar to any page of any notebook, and are removable so you can move them around. Midori makes a similar product.
Triomphe Paper, in notebook form!
