Suzy your handwriting is sooo beautiful just like you ☺️ I have to agree with you that the gold nibs are so nice to write with. I started out with a Parker Calligraphy fountain pen when I was a teenager - which stil writes nicely 30+ years later but like you I love the quality and the stories of the Sailor pens. I had my eye on the Dragon Palace for some time - not silly at all - I also like it for the name and the colour. I also live the around of Rain and wanted to get the Summer Rain as I was born in the summer and my name means rain but have my eye in the recent Tea pens, especially as I have started a tea and Treats TN. Thank you for the shop recommendations, I plan to visit The Netherlands in 2024 (will be staying a few months to spend time with a number of friends) so look forward to seeing pens in person before I buy, Varsha, London
@@SuzysCrafteryok so in those 2 months I now have 4 with one on order! I love them all! I have 3 slims with different nibs, a mini, and a standard with a dreamy 21k nib. It is my favourite! Welcome back!
Hi Suzy! I finally got the whole sound of rain series pens too! I can't wait to share that video on my channel! Congrats on your nuts pen and the cherry blossom! I watched this video a while back but I thought I had already commented on here but I guess not!! Love all your sailors 😊 they write so beautifully!
Beautiful pen and I liked the quick history lesson. I've been using a converter for awhile now and I never thought of extracting ink directly with it. THanks for the tip!
Thank you so much! I’m afraid with light coloured pen that the ink will stain the pen. I usually refill converters like this when I emptied one and I have no need of cleaning it yet. I don’t know if there is a right or wrong though. Some say that when you fill a pen through the nib that there are less air bubbles in the system so the change on leakages are smaller. Have a great day ❤️
Thank you so much! Sorry for my late reply… the stamp cabinet is an antique letterpress drawer ❤️ you can find them at flee markets or maybe online at a second hand marketplace site!
