This gorgeous pen with strips of abalone shell definitely warranted a review – even though it’s actually Azizah’s pen.
This pen was kindly lent to me by Iguana Sell – thank you! I’ve received a lot of review requests for the S.T. Dupont brand, so I am grateful for this review opportunity.
Just a reminder that Iguana Sell will attend and sponsor the Madrid Pen Show this year! On the first day of the show, Friday November 18, in the afternoon, Azizah and I will be at the Iguana Sell table. Anyone interested in checking out some fountain pens, inks, or chatting about them, please come over!
