It’s hard to believe, but it’s real. Pen World’s Suzanne Lee has written an awesome feature article on Scriptorium Pens for their August, 2022 issue. I’m honored and happy to be able to share this with you!
EDIT: The in stock Kelmscott Dragonfly Special Editions have all sold, but you can still order one in any size, to be placed in the regular work queue, which is currently around 8 to 9 months long.

I’m excited to announce a new pen model, the Kelmscott, along with two very different Special Edition versions. These are the very first Scriptorium Pens Special Editions! The Kelmscott has clean lines featuring a straight cap and barrel with a taper to allow for posting, and has slightly curved finials. The name comes from The Kelmscott Press, created in 1891 by craftsman and designer William Morris, and devoted to bringing back the beautiful illuminated manuscript styles of the medieval period.
The first Special Edition is the KelmscottDragonfly, which features a fabulous custom dragonfly material meticulously designed & created by Bob Dupras, and a magnificent Silver Dragonfly wraparound clip crafted by Mike Redburn. Over 8 months were spent in the planning of both the material and clip. A special Rickshaw Bagworks pen sleeve, with a colorful scattering of dragonflies on the outside, comes with the pen.
All 11 Kelmscott Dragonflies have now been sold. Eleven of these Special Edition Dragonfly Kelmscotts are available now, in Small size, for $335 + shipping. This includes a Mark Bacas tuned steel nib. Gold nibs are available on request.Email me if you’d like to claim one now: renee@scriptoriumpens.com Once these are gone, you can still order one in any size, to be placed in the regular work queue, which is currently around 8 to 9 months long.
Red Ripple Ebonite and Hammered Silver
The next Special Edition Kelmscott, available in early August, features Classic Red Ripple Ebonite in SEM Ponceau and a beautiful Hammered Silver Texture for both Clip and Barrel Banding. The clip resembles vintage accommodation clip styles, but is attached by a hidden clip ring. The hammered silver clip band winds all the way around the cap finial, and a wide, hammered silver band encircles the lower barrel. Accompanying this Special Edition is a custom Rickshaw pen sleeve with a vintage pattern of willow tree leaves and branches designed by Wm. Morris, mentioned earlier.
As with the Dragonfly version, once these 12 are spoken for, you can still order one in any size, to be placed in the regular work queue. Wider pen sizes will have wider barrel bands to look proportionate.
Other Special Edition designs are already in the works, and I plan to keep this as a regular feature going forward. 😊
I’m happy to announce a new roll stop offering — a Koi Fish! I’ve always delighted in watching colorful Koi swimming around in their peaceful ponds. When a customer asked for a koi roll stop, I knew it was time to create one as a regular Scriptorium Pens offering. Hand cast in Silver, Bronze, Brass, or even Gold if you’d like, these koi feature graceful curves and finely detailed fish scales.

Each Koi is 26mm long and can be attached to any cap. The price is $40.
If you already have an order in the work queue and would like to swap a clip or other roll stop for this one, just let me know! renee@scriptoriumpens.com
This Friday, November 5, is the big day that fountain pen fans look forward to every year. For this year’s 10th Annual Fountain Pen Day celebration, Scriptorium Pens is offering our biggest discount yet: $25 off your entire fountain pen order, and $10 off every dip pen order. What’s more, this discount will apply for the whole weekend, not just Friday, so you have more time to look at all the options and choose something that is just right for you. Join in the savings with this international event, which occurs on the first Friday in November each year.
This discount will apply to all orders placed between 12:00am Friday, November 5 and 11:59pm Central Standard Time Sunday, November 7, 2021.
Here’s a new pen model for 2021 that’s fun and funky — the Satire®. When closed, the cap looks longer than the barrel, but when uncapped, the pen is normal in length and has a very long, 28mm extended grip. This extra length on the grip keeps your fingers from touching the barrel threads.
The Satire® design grew out of a customer’s request for a model similar to the Aeterna®, but with a flush cap and barrel body.
It features a straight cap and barrel with slight tapers at either end. Both finials have a smooth, convex shape. The pen comes in the usual range of Scriptorium sizes, and can be customized like all other models.
It’s almost time for this year’s Fountain Pen Day celebration, and for a discount that many customers look forward to. An international event, Fountain Pen Day occurs on the first Friday in November each year, and is a time for fans to share their enthusiasm for these unique writing instruments.
Celebrate 2020’s Fountain Pen Day with Scriptorium Pens and get a $15 Discount on your total fountain pen order and $5 off every dip pen ordered. This discount will apply to all orders placed between 12:00am and 11:59pm Central Standard Time this Friday, November 6, 2020.
Scriptorium Pens is delighted to offer some fun new nib styles for our customers. First is the fabulous Secretary of De Flex Steel Nibs by Kirk Speer. Customers are always asking for flex nibs, and now they can get them! These nibs have amazing flex, so much so that it’s hard to believe they are steel and not gold.
Next are the amazing Stacked Nib styles from Monty Winnfield. We offer the full range of their unique nibs. These nibs take “stacked” to a whole new level. Visit the Monty Winnfield website for more details.
The Cobra Nib – one of six different stacked nib styles from Monty Winnfield. All Monty Winnfield nibs will have the Scriptorium shield logo engraved on them.

Any of these wonderful new nibs are available now for ordering. If you already have a pen on order and wish to add or change to one of these offerings, just send me an email: renee@scriptoriumpens.com
It has come to my attention that a website which has no actual connection whatsoever to Scriptorium Pens, LLC,® is falsely claiming to make and sell custom Scriptorium Pens®. These individuals have also falsely claimed to make and sell other prominent custom pen makers’ products.
If you see or suspect a fraud website or scam, proceed with caution.
The only place to order a custom Scriptorium Pen® or a stock Scriptorium Pen® is directly through me (Scriptorium Pens, LLC®) or through my established websites on Facebook, Instagram, etc.
