Amazing selection with helpful and knowledgable staff - you never buy something without knowing what you're getting. Showed me ink samples, explained bits about my pen that I bought that i wouldnt have known otherwise. So good i came twice in one trip. Absolute reccomend! Margaret was extremely knowledgable. Go here!

One of the touchstone businesses in the return to writing with fountain pens in the 1980s-2000s. In its day it carried both rehabilitated vintage and new fountain pens, but now only new. Still worth a visit.
