Crónicas Estilográficas – a fountain pen blog you need to be reading

By On · 12 Comments · In Cool Stuff

Bruno Taut is the author of Crónicas Estilográficas and creates some of the coolest posts about fountain pens I’ve ever seen.

One great example is his latest post where he discusses a short Pilot Capless from 1965. He even compares it with the long version from the same year. I’m not sure if you noticed this but those pens in the image down there ARE STICKERED! Woah.

Once you’re done with that post you should head to his homepage and just start reading everything. A couple of days will probably fly by as do so, but that’s ok because there’s really no better way you could spend your time. If you do happen to drop by, be sure to leave a comment and let Bruno know the ‘Geeks sent ya.

        Get back? Madrid is where I live! I’ve never been on your side of the pond in my life!

          Oh, you mean from my trip, and through the internet… yes.. I totally caught on to that straight away… I’m unlikely to buy any pens, it’s more of a look-see. Maybe some ink.

    Cronicas is one of my absolute favorite pen blogs! I get excited everytime a new post pops up in my RSS feed. Glad you guys are bringing some well deserved attention to Bruno’s stuff. Killer content, great pictures, and he gets all those awesome goodies in Japan that we never even hear about Stateside.

    Geek of the Week? Or at least a shot of his daily carry pens to drool over.
