    Default Many years lurking...

    Hello,

    I have been lurking around for some years, now, but only now went forward, eventhough I have been frequentig other fora.

    I live in France.

    i have been using foutain pens sinec my first one, received at the age of 5.
    I love french brands such as Bayard, Meteor, Stylomine.
    I own mainly vintage pens, but started recently to get interested in costum made modern pens. I own some unique models.
    I have discovered indian pens also quite recently, and loving it. My experience with a main supplier was quite unfrtunate (I like clear situations, and promises to be kept), but have been lucky enough to find some very gentle and very correct indian members who increase my little collection with some beautiful models.

    Galalith, celluloïd and ebonite are my favorite materials, pen wise.

    I have also a passion for paper and inks - who doesn't?

    Well, all this to tell you I am glad to join.

    Hi Fountainpenpagan,

    Welcome to the Fountain Pen Geeks forums! Smaller than the largest pen fora, larger than some, you'll find a comfortable community of pen-centric people here, with a growing body of posts, reviews, and group knowledge. Mostly, you'll find people who are enthusiastic about fountain pens, and fountain pen people.

    Join in!








    Regards,
    Jon
