      @Jordonf9:

      Thanks guys. I think I prefer either Japanese or German writing utensils over all others.

      Agreed!

      It's too tarnished to post right now, but I have the rollerball version of this Namiki sterling pen featuring a samurai rendered in the style of traditional woodblock prints:

      Think it, be it.

          Here’s an old toy that I’ve had since the 80’s.  It’s from a Japanese cartoon called Votoms and this is the Brutish Dog. Made of plastic and zinc die cast metal. And yes, Japanese toys are in a league of their own

              I love Rotring pens and pencils. They are the BMW of the writing world. Very robust and have a great sound and feel. Could be an heirloom.

              I always forget about this thread but I picked up a cool sculpture off a local etsy dealer and I wanted to share. A couple years ago I took a liking to a St Louis artist named Saunders Schultz who had recently passed. He was a world renowned sculptor with installations all around the country. Anyway, I found this sculpture and it looked familiar even though it was unsigned (and priced too cheaply). I finally made the mental connection that the sculpture is actually a study piece for a Schultz fountain that is within viewing distance of our family plot at Resurrection Cemetery. I couldnt nab it fast enough! Very pleased to have another little piece of StL history. Last pic is another Schultz study of a fountain.

                I’ve put a lot of lead through this one. My son is using it now.

                  @Sage954 this has to be the best pencil ever - had mine since art college (a long time ago, and before everything was done on a computer)!

                    Well I treated myself to a "bi-matière" ST Dupont Fidélio rollerball… Laque blue with plaque silver cap...

                    It's actually midnight blue, my absolutele favourite colour... Well it's actually my favourite colour for a Ferrari, but those are quite a bit more expensive... This was a mere 200€...

                    I'll try and take some pics myself soon... This is absolutely new/ unused btw... Not bad for a ~25 year old pen!..

                      I have three Fidélios… All parts are interchangeable (even from fountain pen to roller), so I changed the gold plaque fountain pen to a roller with extra parts I had from a black/ black Fidélio...

                        The hotel we are staying at in Barcelona is a charming boutique called Cotton House. Excellent location and a wonderful property and staff.

                        The hotel used to be the seat of the Association of Cotton House Manufacturers and is themed accordingly. I found a book about Japanese cotton :

                        And for @Madame-Buttonfly

                        Then there is a room full of cotton bolts, ledgers, and other relics of the building's history.

                          My older brother gave me this full-length wallet for my 18th birthday - so a long, long time ago. No idea on the make-up, but it used to have brass(?) corner stays, although they disappeared at some point past.
                          I don’t use it day to day anymore, but it is treasured - it largely stays in a drawer, keeping some IH tokens (and spare stickers) safe!
