Baltimore Pen Show! With Exclusive Rose Gold Elysian!

Hi Pen Fans!

This weekend is the Baltimore Pen Show! 

We’ve been super busy over the last month or so making pens for our inventory, and we’ll be bringing well over 400 pens with us as part of our Current Inventory  for purchase at the show, or after the show if you cannot attend.

But we will also be bringing a special Limited Edition Elysian that is exclusive to the show!

This pen is made from a fantastic material coming from a material maker that we’ve been using more and more lately! This material was made by Lisa Marie Bradley with Pourly Controlled. The material is called Copper Patina.  

As you can see, we’ve outfitted these Elysians with a very nice Rose Gold Band and Rose Gold Nib to compliment the Copper Patina material.

We have engraved the cap band with a graphic denoting the 2026 Baltimore Pen Show, as well as the edition number on the opposite side.

The Edition will be limited to only 12 pens.

At past pen shows, our LE exclusives have sold pretty fast. Not everyone can attend each day of the show, and many cannot get off work to attend Friday. For this reason, we will limit our Friday sales of this LE to 8 pens only, and our Saturday sales to 4 pens. It will be first come, first served each day.

This pen will be $250 with a steel nib (normally $270 if purchased as a custom version).  

Of course, in addition to this exclusive pen, we’ll be bringning more than 400 pens as part of our Current Inventory.

At the bottom of this page, you will see a slideshow displaying  every pen that we’ll be bringing to the show.

However, I’ll also include links below so that you can see each specific model that will be coming to the show with us.

A Nice Article in Pen World Magazine!

Hi Pen Fans!

For those that subscribe to Pen World Magazine, you might have seen an article regarding Edison in the December 2025 issue! 

For those that didn’t see the article, you can read it by CLICKING HERE (linked with permission).

When Pen World approached us, I was so happy to learn that Barry Gabay was assigned to this article! Andrea and I have been at this for more than 18 years now, and we remember Barry being around for our first pen show! So I’m honestly not even sure how long Barry has been at it, but certainly longer than us!

Barry became a good friend over the years, and there was truly no one better qualified with a deeper understanding of Edison throughout the years and how we have evolved from the very beginning. 

The article covers Edison from our genesis 18+ years ago when I was working out of our garage, all the way to today. But Barry gets even more in-depth with our backgrounds before pens, how we established ourselves before social media even existed, how we handled growth, hired more, our employee atmosphere, and how we moved to our larger, current facility.

I want the thank Barry as well as Nicky Pessaroff (editor-in-chief who has been with Pen World since 2001), for allowing us some space in the magazine! It was quite flattering when we were approached. 

Lastly, I do feel obligated to let everyone know how I feel about Pen World and what I’ve observed over my years of manufacturing pens. 

Pen World has been around  since 1987, so coming up on 40 years! And as long as I’ve been at this, Pen World has been such an amazing asset to the pen community. 

They cover topics from basic beginner pens all the way up to expensive luxury pens. From the largest manufacturers to the smallest independent makers. Of course, they cover modern pens, but their coverage of vintage pens is equally impressive. 

And considering that no one can make every pen show, you will always find coverage of what you might have missed at the last few shows, along with learning of the upcoming shows.

If you don’t already subscribe to Pen World, I encourage you to give it consideration. Or at least pick up the latest issue (print or digital) and get a feel for what they are about. I think that you’ll find that their content speaks for itself and that they deserve your support in an age when print media of such high quality content could certainly use it.

Again, thanks to Nicky, Barry, and Pen World!

Please let us know your thoughts after reading the article!

New Pens Production Line

New Material to the Production Line Collier! Ancient Orchid!

I am very happy to announce that we have refreshed the Production Line Collier with a new material – Ancient Orchid!

This is a new material that we have never used before in any pen.

Ancient Orchid is somewhat similar to our very popular Antique Marble version of the Collier, but with purple shades. So if you enjoy the mildly translucent qualities of Antique Marble combined with nice black striated accents, but in a purple shade, this material should be right up your alley!

Ancient Orchid will be in addition the current lineup of the Collier materials. So it will not be replacing any of the current Collier material choices. 

This means that the available Collier materials will now be Ancient Orchid, Rock Candy, Antique Marble, Nighthawk, and Persimmon Swirl, as you can see below.

This pen is part of our Production Line, so you will not buy these directly from Edison.

You can purchase this pen through any of our retailers listed here.

We are very excited to introduce this new material. Please let us know your thoughts on this pen!

And please reach out with any questions!

Holiday Themed Limited Edition Collier for Small Business Saturday!

Hi Pen Fans!

We are very happy to announce a Holiday Themed Limited Edition Collier for Small Business Saturday!

As part of the Holiday Theme, we were able to put together a really neat custom engraving on the nib. This engraving is a snowflake made up of Edison logos! 

Edison Snowflake!

This material is Arctic Fox made by Lisa Marie with Pourly Controlled. We’ve been using more and more of Lisa Marie’s materials and we couldn’t be happier!

When we first saw this material from Lisa Marie, we instantly thought of snow and winter. So we’ve been hoarding this material the last few months specifically for the Holidays!

This will be a smaller Limited Edition of only 20 pens

These pens are converter fillers. They will come with a Steel nib in your choice of EF, F, M, B, BB, 1.1mm, 1.5mm, Extra Fine Flex, or Fine Flex tip sizes.

The price of this pen will be $250. If purchased as a custom version, the normal price would be $295.

THE edition is sold out

Ohio Pen Show! With Pourly Controlled LE Elysian!

Hi Pen Fans!

This weekend is the Ohio Pen Show!

We’ll be bringing an Exclusive Limited Edition Elysian with the option of our Rollerball Combination setup for those that would be interested in having both a fountain pen and a rollerball in the same pen!

This pen is made from a fantastic material coming from a material maker that is pretty new to us! This material was made by Lisa Marie Bradley with Pourly Controlled. The material is called Cold Plasma, and it’s definitely a stunner! Expect to see more and more Edison pens made from Lisa Marie’s materials!

Of course, the rollerball component is only an option for those that would be interested in having both in the same pen. For those that don’t care for the rollerball option, nothing changes with this pen when it is in fountain pen mode and one would never know the difference. If you are unsure as to  how this works, please see our Rollerball announcement for details. 

The Edition will be limited to only 12 pens.

At past pen shows, our LE exclusives have sold pretty fast. Not everyone can attend each day of the show, and many cannot get off work to attend Friday. For this reason, we will limit our Friday sales of this LE to 8 pens only, and our Saturday sales to 4 pens. It will be first come, first served each day.

We have engraved the cap band with a graphic denoting the 2025 Ohio Pen Show, as well as the edition number on the opposite side.

This pen will be $225 with a steel nib (normally $270 if purchased as a custom version).If you want the rollerball option, we can include a rollerball kit for $20 (normally $35). 

Of course, in addition to this exclusive pen, we’ll be bringning more than 400 pens as part of our Current Inventory.

At the bottom of this page, you will see a slideshow displaying  every pen that we’ll be bringing to the show.

However, I’ll also include links below so that you can see each specific model that will be coming to the show with us.

Edison Rollerballs! Fountain Pen and Rollerball Within Same Section!

Hi Pen Fans!

I am very happy to announce a unique option for Edison Rollerballs!

I have been able to engineer a neat concept within the interior of our grip sections for all models that use a #6 nib. This design will allow the grip section to house a Fountain Pen Nib and also a Rollerball Nosecone within the same unit.

This fountain pen/rollerball combination option will be compatible with all of our models that use a #6 sized nib. This includes the Collier, Beaumont, Elysian, Menlo, Brockton, Comet, Glenmont, Morgan, #76, Pearl, and Herald.

Menlo

Brockton

Collier

Beaumont

Pearl

Comet

Glenmont

This will be an option for any new pen purchase, but we can also offer an aftermarket retrofit to any existing #6-nibbed converter filling Edison pen within your collection.

Compatible refills will be of the “G2” style. We will supply Uniball 207 Gel Refills, but Pilot G2’s, Pentel LR7’s, and many other G2 style refills are compatible.

This gives us three options to offer...

Option #1Purchase new pen with  FP/RB Combination Section. Comes equipped with all components required to use as Fountain Pen and Rollerball.Adds $35 to normal price of Fountain Pen
Option #2Retrofit an existing Edison Pen with FP/RB Combination Section.Ship pen to Edison for retrofit. $80 + $7 return shipping
Option #3Dedicated Rollerball, no Fountain Pen Option.Same price as fountain pen version

Below is a cross section of a grip section showing how this works. I have been able to engineer this in such a way that there are no compromises between the two configurations. In other words, the fountain pen configuration still retains the internal structure required to fully support the fountain pen nib housing. 

If you are interested in purchasing a ready-to-ship Currently Inventoried pen with this Rollerball option, we can do this. However, we will most likely need to manufacture the combination-style section. So rather than shipping immediately, please allow 1-2 business days.

At the time of publishing this announcement, we only have these rollerball nosecone options in rhodium (silver tone). However, gold versions are on the way and should be here within 4-6 weeks. 

Full details are within the video above, but please email me with any questions!

DC Pen Show! Lots of Inventory Coming with Us!

Hi Pen Fans!

This weekend is the DC Pen Show! As always, this show is certainly one of the biggest and best! We hope to see you there!

We’ve been super busy over the last month or so making pens for our inventory, and we’ll be bringing well over 400 pens with us as part of our Current Inventory  for purchase at the show, or after the show if you cannot attend.

We also will be bringing plenty of our newest and currently our most popular model, the Elysian. We will have well over 35 custom Elysians coming with us to the show.

At the bottom of this page, you you will see a slide show displaying  every pen that we’ll be bringing to the show.

However, I’ll also include links below so that you can see each specific model that will be coming to the show with us.

Side note – normally we bring a special exclusive limited edition for each pen show, but I’m afraid that our production schedule did not allow us enough time to manufacture an exclusive pen for this show! However, rest assured that this is not the norm. To the best of our abilities, not having a special exclusive pen at a show will be one-time thing. Our apologies!

Pricing

Price Increase to Solid Gold Nibs :(

Hi Pen Fans.

I’m writing today with not the greatest of announcements. The ever-increasing gold rate has finally cascaded to Edison, and we’re being forced to significantly increase our price for pens equipped with 14k and 18k nibs.

For a long time, we’ve been clinging to our gold nib pricing as margins became worse and worse. But we’re at a point where the exploding gold rate no longer makes this possible, as our shipments are now coming to us with a very high price increase. 

Please see the graph below showing how the gold rate has nearly doubled in the last two years.

This very high rate has finally led to the current situation where I can no longer sustain my current gold nib pricing.

In the past, we added $100 to the cost of any pen that was equipped with a 14k or 18k nib. Unfortunately, effectively immediately, we will need to double this price. So any pen purchased with a #5 or #6 solid gold nib will have an extra $200 added to the normal steel nib price.

There are other factors, including the current rate of the Euro vs Dollar as well as the recent 10% tariff (HTS 9903.01.25) that is applied to every international shipment that I receive, which also influences this increase. However, the gold rate is certainly the primary factor.

Rest assured that I will closely monitor all of these factors moving forward. If pricing of solid gold nibs can come down in the future, I will certainly do so.

If anyone has any questions, please reach out.

Chicago Pen Show! With Limited Edition Elysian in Brooks Nebula!

Hi Pen Fans!

We’re excited to return to the Chicago Pen Show this weekend!

We will be bringing a Limited Edition version of our most recent model….the Elysian! This Elysian will be made from Jonathon Brooks Nebula, which is an Edison-exclusive recipe.

We have also added a pretty cool engraving to the centerband.

The Elysian is a model that we just introduced in late 2024, and it has been amazingly popular! See here for all details regarding this newer model.

This LE pen is exclusive to attendees of the Chicago Pen Show.

By looking closely at the centerband, you can see that we have added a special engraving specific to the Chicago Pen Show. This is a stylized version of the Chicago skyline!

The Edition will be limited to only 12 pens.

At past pen shows, our LE exclusives have sold pretty fast. Not everyone can attend each day of the show, and many cannot get off work to attend Friday. For this reason, we will limit our Friday sales of this LE to 8 pens only, and our Saturday sales to 4 pens. It will be first come, first served each day.

This pen will be $250 with a Steel nib or $350 with an 18k nib.

Outside of this Limited Edition pen, of course, we’ll be bringing lots and lots of our current inventory. We have been very busy making inventory specifically for this show. In fact, we’ll be bringing more than 400 pens! 

And of course, we will be bringing lots of custom Elysians. As of typing this, we are on par to be packing up around 35 custom Elysians for the show.

So our Current Inventory Galleries have been updated with lots of new pens that will be available at the show, but we still have a few more photos of inventoried pens to add later today. If you can’t attend the Chicago show this weekend, any pens that don’t sell at the show will be available when we return. Feel free to email me with an inquiry if something appeals.

You can see a slidehow of all current inventory pens at the bottom of this post, or click here.

We hope to see you this weekend!

New Materials from Tim Crowe and Current Inventory Updated!

Hi Pen Fans!

We are very happy to announce that we have partnered with a new craft material maker!

Tim Crowe with Turnt Pen Co has been on our radar for a while now. Over the last couple of years, we’ve had more than a few customers send us his materials for custom orders. Every time that we used his materials, they definitely got our attention! 

Below are a few examples, but there’s lots more to see!

Elysian in Crowe Cinder and Smoke
Collier in Crowe Arizona Abalone
Collier in Tim Crowe Carson 30
Elysian in Crowe Copper Sulfate

Digging deeper into Tim’s catalog of materials uncovered a lot of great stuff that we just couldn’t resist!

So as of now, we will be keeping regular inventory of Tim’s materials. This includes raw materials ready to make custom pens from and also pens that are currently inventoried and ready to ship.

CLICK HERE TO SEE ALL PENS THAT WE’VE MADE FROM TIM’S MATERIALS SO FAR, WITH MANY MORE TO COME!

Additionally, we have lots of new pens added to our Current Inventory Galleries that are ready to ship with no waiting!

The vast majority of these pens were intended to be inventory for the Baltimore Pen Show, but many of you know that we decided to back out of the show this year, but we will be back next year.

But this also means that rather than these pens being sold at the Baltimore Show, they are now ready to purchase from our Current Inventory!

The Elysian has been very popular, to the point that we’ve had trouble keeping them inventoried and ready to ship. So there are now lots of currently inventoried Elysians to choose from!

You can also watch the slideshow below to see all of our pens that are ready to ship with no waiting.

If any of the pens linked in this post are of interest, feel free to email me to narrow down options!

Thanks!
