I've never heard of this pen maker! I'll be curious to know how you like it when you get it Well, I'll tell you if I ever get one. I meant it is my "pen I can't justify buying" Cleo Skribent is a less known German brand I've been interested in for a while, but so far I don't own any of their products cause they are so pricey. I've understood all the parts of their pens are their own production (even nibs), made in Germany, and I've read positive reviews of their quality. I'd be happy to support a European fountain pen manufacturer, so maybe if I would make it a combined Christmas + birthday present..

I keep thinking the same thing too that I would love to own at least one super luxurious pen amongst my more pedestrian, more ordinary collection of pens. My daughter keeps telling me that I should treat myself to a Montblanc!

Like Catida, I hadn't heard of Fountain Pen Day. But, for some reason, I bought two more fountain pens and a bottle of ink!

Well gosh. I set up the FP Tree and hung all my pens and ink bottles on it. Made the Traditional FP Day meal with FP Chocolate Fondue for dessert, then went outside and splashed the front door with my favorite ink colors.
Go big or go home ๐

I have the Cleo Skribent Classic which is a piston filler. Nice pen which I like a lot. I would put it just below a Pelikan, of which I have five.

I wonder why this company isn't better known, since those who do have Cleo pens seem to be happy with them. Maybe they just haven't succeeded in marketing.

I ended up placing orders with Anderson Pens, Vanness Pens, and Pen Chalet. This week should be full of fun mail.
