Fontoplumo Exclusive Leonardo Momento Zero Yellow Brick Road Now Available (Sponsor)

Fontoplumo is at it once again, this time with another beautiful exclusive in collaboration with Leonardo Officina Italiana.

The Leonardo Momento Zero Yellow Brick Road is a classically designed fountain pen, featuring a bright resin barrel, steel nib, and a cartridge/converter filling system (converter included).

This color is a limited edition, exclusively for Fontoplumo.

The Yellow Brick Road means, to us, a road to happiness and good fortune. The pen is made in an elegant, muted yellow and fits the Momento Zero model ideally. Classical with a hint of joy.

The Leonardo Momento Zero Yellow Brick Road is available in three versions:

Yellow Brick Road with silver pebbles (chrome trim), limited to 15 pieces.

Yellow Brick Road, with golden pebbles (gold plated trim), limited to 15 pieces.

Yellow Brick Road, by Night (ruthenium trim), limited to 5 pieces.

The Yellow Brick Road pen will be supplied in the Leonardo gift case, including a special sleeve for this edition.

ZenPop - Japanese Stationery Subscription Boxes (Sponsored)

Japan’s reputation for quality and cuteness is nowhere more apparent than in the stationery you’ll find there. Japanese brands like ZEBRA, Uni, Pilot, and Kuretake make some of the most highly coveted products. But beyond the big brands is a wide world of unique stationery that you’ll love discovering.

ZenPop.jp, based in Osaka, Japan, curates monthly boxes of new Japanese stationery. These packs include pens, pencils, notebooks, journals, erasers, stickers, washi tape, and maybe some new types of stationery you’ve never used before. New boxes are available every month, filled with 10 new items and including at least 2 or 3 writing tools. A single pack can be ordered anytime and costs $29.50 USD, which includes free shipping to most destinations around the world. Subscriptions are also available which gives you a discount AND gets you an extra bonus item every month.

These stationery packs are a fun way to grow your stationery collection, and they make perfect gifts for any stationery lovers you know. Check out ZenPop’s website to see previews of previous packs, see pictures, and read reviews. July’s pack is filled with famous Japanese characters like Gudetama, and Rilakkuma, and some lesser known characters too, like Melon Kuma, the part melon - part bear who isn't well potty trained!

Look forward to colorful summery items in August’s Stationery Pack, which will include among many cool items, the award winning brush pen (with sparkles!) from Kuretake, Wink of Stella.

Use coupon code PENADDICT to save an extra $5 on your first box if you sign up for a stationery subscription during July. Or if you’d like to try ZenPop before you subscribe, use coupon code PEN2 for a $2 discount on any single ZenPop pack during July. (Only one coupon code can be used per order. While supplies last.)

For Japanese cuteness overload, be sure to follow ZenPop on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. My thanks to them for sponsoring The Pen Addict this week.

Kaweco Sunrise and Sunset Special Edition now at Fontoplumo (Sponsor)

Well isn’t this a sunny surprise!

Fontoplumo has been on a roll with special editions, and this time around, it is the Kaweco Special Edition Sunrise and Sunset.

Kaweco Sport fountain pens are some of the most fun and functional pens on the market, and these two models add another bright color to an already vivid lineup. The Sunrise model features a warm yellow barrel with silver trim and silver steel nib, while the Sunset model uses the same barrel and changes out the trim and nib colors to gold. The end result is one of the most fun Kaweco Sport barrels I’ve seen to date.

The Kaweco Sunrise and Sunset are Fontoplumo exclusives and are a single production run. When the sun finally sets and these are gone, they are gone for good. At just € 25,00 (€ 20,66 outside the EU), and with your choice of Fine, Medium, or Broad nibs, they are sure to be popular.
