Stationery Review 399 - Lamy Aion Black Fountain Pen (M) ZAR 699

Hi Friends,

Lamy Aion Black Fountain Pen (M) has a really different feel from the same. The nib is different. I felt the Medium nib in the Aion wrote a little thinner than the Lamy Safari standard medium nib. The body is really cool and has no finials. It's made from a single piece of metal; it feels like. Check it out!

I really got this pen when it was cheaper and now the prices are sky high for all range of Lamy fountain pens.

Stationery Review 396 - I Tested the Deli Daily Desk Pen Stand Gel Pen!

Hi Friends,

Deli Daily Desk Pen Stand Gel Pen is a great addition to your desk for jotting down ideas or any information when your fountain pen is far away. Check it out!

Stationery Review 396 - I Tested the Deli Daily Desk Pen Stand Gel Pen!

Setting up my new desk pen with a spring-loaded holder. See how this unique stationery piece performs in a notebook test.

I recently unboxed this accessory to see how it integrates into my workspace. The assembly process is straightforward, focusing on connecting the pen to its weighted base for smooth daily use.

After putting it together, I tested the ink flow and spring mechanism on paper. It is a functional addition for anyone looking to organise their writing tools, and the smiley face design adds a nice touch to the desk pen setup. The spring-loaded holder keeps the pen upright and ready for quick notes.
