Writing Cards and Letters on a Snow Day

Hello everyone, my name is Laura and I've been working at Pen Boutique for a couple of months.

Posted on

Pelikan Souveran M600 Fountain Pen Pelikan has been manufacturing fountain pens for 85 years, and their experience shows in the Souveran M600 fountain pen. I acquired the black with blue stripe model in the photo several years ago, and it quickly became one of my favorites. The medium sized body and overall balance are great, the gold plated rings are very attractive, and the brass piston filling mechanism is a real pleasure to use. Probably the best feature is the two-tone 14 carat gold nib decorated with rhodium, which writes so very smoothly, even in fine or extra fine (mine...
