From experience we know how challenging it can be to find that one, particular pen.

I Need A Pen specialises in hard-to-find pens. Special edition pens, older editions, pens that have sold out, or ones that are only available in other parts of the world. We want to help collectors round out their collections and help individuals find that one, exceptional pen.

As more and more of our lives move into the digital sphere, we want to help keep people connected to the tangible world. The act of writing is an art and I Need A Pen is here to ensure you practice your craft with the right implement.

We have been involved in the pen industry for nearly for a decade. We founded Fontoplumo in 2012, which sells a wide range of writing instruments. Initially, Fontoplumo was an online store, but in 2016 we opened a location in the Dutch city of Delft where pen lovers can see our continually changing selection. We’ve even worked with some of your favorite pen brands to create unique special editions.

We pride ourselves on our excellent customer service. The I Need A Pen webshop gives you the ease of 21st-century shopping but you’re always welcome to contact us for personalised service. We know what it is like to struggle to find that special, specific pen. We’re on the lookout for some ourselves.

We are always on the lookout for pen collections – either from private collectors or from other businesses. If you are interested in selling, please contact us about a possible acquisition.

PIUMA Pocket Fountain Pen - Small Pen, Big Nib! - Now on Kickstarter (Sponsor)

PIUMA Pocket Fountain Pen Titanium

The new PIUMA Pocket Fountain Pen by California-based ēnsso, is the answer to the convenience of small pens without sacrificing comfort and writing experience.

The main goal of the design was to create a super compact pen that would transform into a regular-size pen when posted. It features a large number 6 nib from Peter Bock (Germany) in EF, F, M, and B sizes. The pen is machined from solid blocks of titanium, brass, and aluminum. Titanium pens are machined from grade 5 titanium, which is usually used in the aerospace industry. The brass version is free of lead and the aluminum is 6061-T6 anodized in matte black. It accepts standard international ink cartridges and bulb (aerobatic) converters.

PIUMA Pocket Fountain Pen Brass

The design of PIUMA Pocket derives from classic cigar-shaped pens. It has a minimalist approach with attention to detail. It features wide threads that allow a smooth and fast uncapping and posting.

PIUMA Pocket starts at just $49 and is offered on Kickstarter at 40% discount of the future retail price. Pens will be shipped in July 2021.

My thanks to ēnsso for sponsoring The Pen Addict this week.
