About Me

Thanks for taking the time to look at this website. I worked at a global law firm for many years, but decided I needed a break. This gave me time to evaluate the large number of pens I have collected, curated and accumulated over 20+ years of fountain pen collecting. My interests range from vintage Montblanc to modern custom made pens to maki-e/raden/Urushi and anything in between. If it has a nib then I am interested in collecting it.

However, having reviewed my collection, the time has come to let a significant part of it be sold to other stylophiles. I have also found fountain pens offer great retail therapy, and I wanted to create a way to move on those I acquire which I do not really want or need!

All the thinking has led to this website. I hope you find something of interest to buy! All the pens on the website are “pre-loved” or used. Many of the pens I have to sell are not yet listed on the websites please do get in touch if you are seeking a specific pen.

For a small fee, I can potentially help with sourcing something very specific - I have a book of reliable contacts most of whom do not have a website. Please use the “source a pen” option on the home page to start a discussion on how I can support you adding to your collection.

Although I am looking to downsize a significant collection, I am always interested in pens that you may wish to sell as part of the refinement of your own collection - please do get in touch using the “sell my pen” option on the home page.

Please do feel free to get in touch via the contact form - it is always good to receive feedback and to network with other enthusiasts! Best wishes,

Nick
