The Liquid Gems of Pelikan – Edelstein Golden Beryl Ink
When I was in primary school, 3rd year, I received my first fountain pen with my engraved name on it. I still remember it very vividly that it was a Pelikan bi-color (red and steel) fountain pen with a steel nib, and we all got royal blue ink with it. The time to start writing with […]
Montegrappa Dante Alighieri: Inferno – The start of a memorable trilogy
The Divine Comedy! Dante Alighieri’s epic 14,233-line narrative poem. This story of love, sin and redemption is widely celebrated as a literary classic and is recognised as a foundation stone in the propagation of modern Italian. The language of music.

Based on a […]
