Thursday Drops: Ice Blue Roterfadens, TWSBI ECO Amazonite, Taccia Inks, and More!

December 12, 2024

Greetings from the throes of the holiday shopping season! We still have new products arriving weekly, including a fresh shipment of Roterfaden Taschenbegleiter binders from Germany with restocks of old favorites AND some new limited editions in fun leather/felt combinations. (Don’t sleep on the ice blue.) While most of the Roterfadens that we currently have are A5-sized, we do have one or two A4 portfolios remaining as well.

Did I mention the ice blue felt looks outstanding?

As we noted on Tuesday, we recently received two different lines of Taccia Inks, including the Ukiyo-e inks (like Sabimidori), as well as the latest 849 release from Caran d’Ache and the TWSBI ECO Amazonite is on pre-order! Get those holiday orders in, because we’re shipping constantly and want to have your gifts out the door as soon as possible for on-time delivery!

Domestic U.S. orders over $75 ship free. Please review our shipping policies and time estimates prior to placing an international order. Orders to Canada may be delayed due to the ongoing postal strike, and UK orders are subject to a minimum due to VAT rules. We are open this week Thursday through Sunday! View up-to-date hours here.

  1. Roterfaden Taschenbegleiter: New Limited Editions! We have three new A5 limited edition Roterfaden Taschenbegleiters in stock and ready to ship out! Two of them feature gorgeous ice blue felt interior, which I’ve not previously seen from Roterfaden.

  2. TWSBI ECO Amazonite Fountain Pen. The latest TWSBI release, “Amazonite”, features a swirled acrylic where colors are mixed during the injection-molding process. This results in no two pens being alike, with different combinations of green and white. These pens are pre-order and should arrive by early next week.

  3. Caran d’Ache Cosmic Blue and Cosmic Gold 849. This year’s winter special is a gorgeous cosmic blue and cosmic gold pair of 849 ballpoints, in metallic gradient finishes.

  4. Kaweco Collection Sport and AL-Sport Pens. The Kaweco Collection pens are the annual special releases of the Sport and AL Sport models, as well as the Perkeos!

  5. Taccia Ukiyo-e Inks. These inks from Taccia feature uncommon, subtle colors similar to the Teranishi line (though different colors, not dupes). The Ukiyo-e line is inspired by Japanese artwork from four different artists of the Edo period, including some exceptionally good blues, greens, and reds.

  6. Taccia Fountain Pen Inks (Standard Line). While different from the Ukiyo-e line in that these inks are more vibrant than the subtle Ukiyo-e colors, the inks behave the same.

  7. Teranishi Guitar Taisho Roman Haikara Ink. Made by the same manufacturer as the Taccia inks, these cult favorites from Japan need more exposure here in the U.S. Check out this post for my five favorite inks from this line.

  8. Diamine Bottled Inks and Inkvent Calendars. I’ve tried to curate some of my favorite inks from the expansive Diamine lineup, including the entirety of the 150th Anniversary and 160th Anniversary releases. We also have a few of the Diamine Inkvent Calendars left.

  9. Midori MD 10th Anniversary 3 and 5 Year Diary Limited Editions. These beautiful fabric covers are paired with the standard multi-year Midori journals, which would make a great gift for anyone (including yourself) this holiday season.

  10. HMM “Mugr” and “Patio” Coffee Accessories. These textured ceramic mugs feature beech or walnut woods on the handles, are functional, and look absolutely stunning on your desk. I’ve not done nearly enough to promote these.

Inkvent is in full swing! Check out yesterday’s post for my favorites so far.
