Release day has arrived and we can now sell all of the latest Lamy releases, including Lamy’s latest addition to it’s standard Safari lineup, the new “Scarlet” color, as well as the latest 2025 AL-Star Special Editions in Denim and Aubergine. Denim is a lighter blue paired with a transparent orange section, while Aubergine is a dusty purple paired with a transparent green section. Since the new Lamy Scarlet pens are part of the standard lineup, they are sold alongside the standard Safari fountain pen, rollerball, ballpoint, and mechanical pencil offerings. The 2025 AL-Star Special Editions are likewise available as fountain pens, rollerballs, ballpoints, and mechanical pencils. View these and other Lamy pens here.
Two New Standard Inks: Lamy Petrol (Yes!) and Lamy Sepia
Following up on last-year’s addition of Lamy Dark Lilac to the regular lineup, Lamy has decided to bring back Petrol, another acclaimed limited edition ink that in recent years has started to command a premium on the secondary market. Personally, I prefer the new release - due to dye availability it’s a slightly different formulation and therefore appears darker (which I like). Sepia is an entirely new color, which I would describe as a terra cotta orange-brown. Both are now available at standard Lamy ink pricing. You can check out a video of me swatching the Petrol ink on our YouTube channel.
Lamy Petrol is a dark teal-black, while Sepia is more of a terra cotta orange/red/brown.
