We like these pens - good quality & a good feel - but the packaging is really nice because it includes a tri-fold pouch for carrying up to three pens with room left for refills , handy and elegant.

We are happy to announce we are now carrying Laban pens. Manufactured in Taiwan, Laban pens are the recipients of numerous awards including the 'Best writing
Instrument of 2004' by the Royal Academy of Fine Arts. By handling and engraving fine pens on a daily basis we have come to know quality - and the pens by Laban are solidly in this category, even to the extent that we will say, dollar for dollar, Laban pens will give you the most for your money in whichever price range you are in.
If it is a presentation pen and you need to make an impression, Laban has the finest quality boxes for each of their pens -
definitely a step above.

Besides their social uses, thank-you notes can be important business tools. When you are invited to large events, where your face and business card may get lost in the shuffle, try a follow up with a handwritten note - include your business card. The choice of stationery depends on the type of note. More formal letters, such as those for business, should use traditional stationery in white, cream or gray.

Ever stumble across an old note or letter from an old friend, relation or long-lost love? What you may discover is much more than simply what the words say. Yes, words have meanings, but often handwritten messages add both emotion and personality. Your mind's eye might picture the person, revive the social discourse or swim in the relationship you had then. If you are lucky enough to still have that person in your world, the thoughts you have may extend to "the now". if by chance they are gone from your life, that note readily brings them back - even if just for the moment. Would that letter or note be the same if it were typed or an email? Hardly!
Pick up a pen and sketch that note, letter, thought or reminder, and the reader will see more than words alone.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!

Do you want to do something 'Nice' for that someone 'Special'? Get your hands on some stationary and a fine pen and write them a little note - perhaps add a smiley face or some xx's and oo's. Think about it, wouldn't you like to get one? (beats an e-mail everytime)

You do not need an ink well to fill your fountain pen if you are using bottled ink, the bottles the ink comes in are designed to be accessed with a fountain pen. However, an attractive ink well on your desk can be most impressive.

Two notable pen fans are actor Nicolas Cage and Welsh opera phenom Katherine Jenkins who commonly use Montblanc pens - we would recommend the Waterman Exception for Montblanc users.
