Mailbox Goodies: Pens & A Stamp

Quality over quantity, peeps. If you missed FPtv this weekend, you have not yet seen my recent acquisitions! So check out my awesome mailbox...
Nakaya Piccolo Kuro-Tamenuri & Conway Stewart Marlborough Vintage Rose Ripple
Nakaya Piccolo Cigar in Kuro-Tamenuri (black-red) with a juicy fine nib, and a Conway Stwart Marlborough Vintage Rose Ripple eyedropper with an italic fine nib. I will review both!
I also received this awesome handmade return address stamp from Paper Pastries! It's modeled after a Ragdoll!

Those pens are beautiful! I look forward to the reviews on both of them. That kitty address stamp is adorable!

I've seen those little stamps, they're so cute! I wish Paper Pastries offered them with doggie shapes, but maybe I'll have to make my own with our Pom.. or a hedgie, can't decide :)

Azizah Asgarali said...

You could contact her and ask her, they are custom made so she might be willing to make you a special shape :)

Azizah Asgarali said...

My to-review pile is huge hehe, they may end up jumping the queue a little!

Azizah Asgarali said...

Who can argue with a stamp in the shape of a Tyco?!

Mina said...

The nakaya is one of my dream pens! (Ok, I would be happy with any color, really) and I like the glittery wrapping paper that came with your stamp!

Oh Nakaya is lovely and I liked the cat stamp. It is so Azizah :)

Mike said...

Those pens look pretty great. Gotta show us the nibs!

Azizah Asgarali said...

Oh good point. I guess that's the best part :)

Azizah Asgarali said...

IT IS! Especially because it's a Ragdoll! :D

Azizah Asgarali said...

It's hard to pick a color (especially when you realize it's probably the last one for a loooooooooooooooooong time hehe)

I missed the live broadcast of FPtv, but they haven't posted to video yet. Did they do one on the 18th?

Azizah Asgarali said...

No sir! There was no show this weekend, so you didn't miss anything :)

Mark said...

Hi, do you find the Piccolo big enough to write comfortably?

Azizah Asgarali said...

Well, I have fairly small hands and I don't often post my pens anyway, so for me, it's no issue. It's well designed too, quite light, but easy to hold in the middle and tapers towards the back so it sits comfortably in the hand. If you have large hands though, despite its nice design and comfort, it'll probably be difficult. If you have average hands, you could probably get away with it, but you'd probably have to compare it to other pens of similar sizes or better yet, try someone's :)
