At long last, our shipment of the latest Kaweco Sport fountain pens has arrived! We have the new Kaweco “Collection” Blue Marble, as well as the Lunar Shadow Blue and Lunar Light Blue - two new variations on the current Lunar Green pens. The Kaweco distributor has communicated that these pens will be in short supply for the next few months, so apologies to everyone if we run low quickly.
We also have a fun announcement, in that we’ve brought Nahvalur (still pronounced Narwhal) back into the store! We have additional Nahvalur Nautilus fountain pens in both ebonite and titanium (!!) with their redesigned silhouette, as well as the retractable Nahvalur Eclipse fountain pen with its recently upgraded mechanism.
You can come see these and more in our Nashville shop, which is open from 1pm-6pm on Thursday and Friday, and from 10am-6pm on Saturday. For our Tennessee customers, Friday-Sunday is tax-free weekend in Tennessee, where certain items $100 and under are exempt from sales tax. Finally, Saturday (8/1) is Stationery Store Day, and we will be running in-store promotions with freebies!
Kaweco Collection Sport Blue Marble Fountain Pen. The latest Kaweco Sport has landed, and yes, they nailed the “Earth-from-Space” look. The marbled acrylic is translucent in places, maybe making this one a candidate for Sport eyedroppering?
Kaweco Sport Lunar Shadow Blue and Lunar Light Blue Fountain Pens. To accompany the “Lunar Green” pens released earlier this year, Kaweco has released two new colors in the Lunar series that feature blue-tinged takes on the Lunar “Shadow” and “Light” looks. What’s your favorite?
Kaweco Perkeo Iridescent Pearl. We have additional Iridescent Pearl Perkeo fountain pens, available now! By far the most popular take on the Perkeo series Kaweco has released to date, Iridescent Pearl has been difficult to keep in stock.
Nahvalur Nautilus Ebonite Fountain Pens. Completely redesigned since we last carried this distinctive ebonite piston filler, the Nahvalur (pronounced “Narwhal”) Nautilus still features it’s signature “porthole” ink windows but now is paired with a more streamlined trim. Bronze and Black trim versions available, as well as a limited number of silver trim pens in the older design.
Nahvalur Nautilus: Ti Fountain Pens. In addition to the classic Ebonite, Nahvalur has released the Nautilus in a Titanium body in both black and toffee finishes. For this specific model, the nibs have been paired with ebonite feeds for an exceptionally good writing experience.
Nahvalur Eclipse Fountain Pen. The redesigned version of Nahvalur’s “Eclipse” retractable fountain pen has arrived, and it may be the pen that does what Platinum attempted with the now-discontinued Curidas.

We have received more of Pilot’s recent North American exclusive - the Custom 74 Lavender Fog, which features nibs from Pilot’s “Soft” series along with a double broad (BB) option that is perfect if you’re looking for a nib to customize at one of the upcoming pen shows!
Pilot Custom 912 Fountain Pen. We have newly arrived stock of the Pilot Custom 912, including Falcon (FA) nib and Soft Fine-Medium (SFM) nibs. The Custom 912 essentially serves as a vehicle for Pilot’s specialty nib lineup - once available only in Japan, Pilot has made them available in the U.S.
