We have received a few interesting Conway Stewart pens consist of new Churchill colors and 2 new limited editions namely the Bard and Belliver. The Bard joins Conway Stewart’s lineup as a commanding new flagship model. Imposing size and a striking style set the Bard apart from other writing instruments, while the traditional attention to detail, hallmarked accent rings, and distinctive clip mark it as part of the proud Conway Stewart heritage. Meanwhile the limited edition Belliver model from Conway Stewart is a return to the finest traditions of CS heritage, rooted in attention to detail, a perfect size and weight, as well as a timeless design married to understated accents. From the carefully crafted resin cap and barrel, each alight in the pearlescent shades of our Classic Brown to the rich gold trim and expertly fitted 18 carat solid gold nib, the Belliver was created with one goal in mind: Making the experience of writing as perfect as possible. The Belliver name comes from the location where the Conway Stewart factory is located on the outskirts of Plymouth Devon.
Check out the pictures and as usual they are available at the website.

The Maya is a Mesoamerican civilization, noted for the only known fully developed written language of the pre-Columbian Americas, as well as its art, architecture, and mathematical and astronomical systems. The Maya script, also known as Maya glyphs or Maya hieroglyphs, was the writing system of the pre-Columbian Maya civilization of Mesoamerica, presently the only Mesoamerican writing system that has been substantially deciphered. Maya writing used logograms complemented by a set of syllabic glyphs, somewhat similar in function to modern Japanese writing.

Sailor the Professional Gear fountain pen is now available in Micarta resin. It features a solid 21 carat gold. The cap, barrel and section are all made from Micarta resin and the trim is 24 carat gold plated. Micarta is a trademark of Norplex-Micarta industrial high pressure laminates and refers to a composite of linen, canvas, paper, fiberglass, carbon fiber or other fabric in a thermosetting plastic, originally used in electrical and decorative applications. Micarta was developed by George Westinghouse at least as early as 1910 using phenolic resins invented by Dr. Leo Baekeland. These resins were used to impregnate paper and cotton fabric which was cured under pressure and high temperature to produce laminates. In later years this manufacturing method included the use of fiberglass fabric, other resin types were also used. Today Micarta high pressure industrial laminates are produced with a wide variety of resins and fibers. The term has been inappropriately used to generically refer to most resin impregnated fiber compounds. Common uses of modern high pressure laminates are as electrical insulators, printed circuit board substrates and knife handles.
