Oh my! Those look just gorgeous
Oh my! Those look just gorgeous
That green... it's really getting to me...
It's never really appealed to me before, until your photography/lighting showed off what it is capable of.
not like i didn't already have enough obsessions what with my Sheaffers and Parkers...
Here's another picture of the closed boxes to show the marvellous patterns:

not gonna lie, i think i like them better open... ('cause you get to see the pens!)
that said, the box for the green one is really eye catching and nice!
Those boxes really are very special - thank you for sharing Christof

Another Pelikan 100 was brought back to life:
This one was in need of a new nib...
Who knows what the Germans called stainless steel between 1940 and 45...

That green…
My first picture here: My First Mont Blanc. A Traveler 147 with italic nib by Pendleton Brown. Nice and wet with Noodlers Heart of Darkness ink.
one of my favourite desk sets: two Waterman's desk pens with RED keyhole nibs and a Waltham 8 days desk watch:
both, pens wand watch are working flawlessly after more than 80 years!

That’s a really nice desk set. I’m not sure what I would do with a double set… i barely have room for the single snorkel and the single “51” sets i already have.
Yours looks very well taken care of
Oh goodness - I'm very jealous of those nibs!! What a beautiful set
Very nice.

I don‘t even have a car. So far, no problem.
But I still think about a donation to the museum....
Gray Pelikan 100 from ca. 1939 which was sold in Portugal by Monteiro Guimarães, the general importer for Pelikan products for the countries Portugal, Spain and Brasil. The imprint "Emegê" stands for his initials M and G, pronounced in portuguese. Nice and uncommon detail.

What a lovely little detail - I like it very much

I was cleaning out a kitchen cabinet and came across this flower “frog” (I think that is what they are called - you see them at flea markets and thrift stores all the time) and it actually makes a decent pen stand, for lighter weight and small to medium size pens.
