I have to start by saying that shading inks are my favorite. :) When I picked up this Frost to try it out at the St. Louis store, I loved the way it wrote enough to add it to my collection - but what I didn't know was that it would turn a regular old Kaweco Smokey Grey (which didn't shade at all in the fountain pen I had it inked in before) to such a lovely shader that I am tempted to just stare at it as I write! And this is with a fine nib. Will definitely be purchasing another!
Papillon has an awry of great gifts ideas for writers. My friend loved the pen.
Love this store! Great pens and fun items. St. Louis really needed this store. I so enjoy going to it even if it is just to look. Customer service cannot be beat.
I've never tried a glass pen however this writes beautifully and makes changing ink colors simple,
Staff was lovely and helped guide me through the store on my first visit. Collection is beautiful as well
Moody, navy blue leaning heavily into slate grey. It sits right in the pocket of a versatile blue-black—dark enough for professional and everyday writing, but distinct from standard royal blue or stark black.
This glass muddler has quickly become my go-to tool for ink swatching.
The smooth glass surface spreads ink cleanly and evenly across the page without snagging or absorbing pigment. Cleaning between colors is effortless—just a quick rinse in water and a wipe with a paper towel, so there’s zero cross-contamination when jumping between inks.
It’s also surprisingly compact. It slips right into a pen case or travel pouch, making it easy to bring along on coffee runs or sketch outings without taking up precious space. Simple, functional, and very well made.
perfect
Great friendly service! Good selection of products from stationary to fountain pens and much more.
I love my new TWSBI Eco. It was such a pleasure to be able to test pens at the shop and really be sure of my decision. It's a joy to write with, especially with the shimmery Ferris Wheel Ink I got to go with it!
I love these washi stickers. They are beautiful and a fun little addition to my journal. Great find ❤️
Bought this TWSBI for my teenage daughter as a gift and so she’ll give mine back to me. Great pen and writes really well. Really good starter pen for those just getting into writing with a fountain pen. Great every day pen and workhorse.
I fell in love with the colour and design of this pen so made an impulse purchase. Use it all the time now.
These stickers are adorable, detailed, and go great as little accents on my notes! I will likely purchase again.
Got this ink for my Twsbi but it was so nice inked up a few of my other pens with it.
