Weekly Drops: ECO Glow Purple Pre-Orders, Traveler's 2023 Calendars, and an Early Fountain Pen Day Promotion!

This week in the Curated Shop, we welcomed Opus 88, and also received our initial allotment of Traveler’s Notebook dated refills in both Standard and Passport size. We have T.G.S. Penwells in stock and available to ship, as well as a full restock of iLootPaperie washi tape and Nahvalur and TWSBI fountain pens. Finally, we are giving away three bottles of Anderillium Ink! Check out this post for details, and don’t forget to visit the Instagram giveaway post as well.

Speaking of fountain pens and ink, we are launching one of our Fountain Pen Day promotions a week early! As of now, all fountain pen purchases from the T.G.S. Curated Shop ship with a free ink sample. We previously ran this promotion to celebrate the Nahvalur launch, but are expanding it through Fountain Pen Day (November 4)! Purchase a new fountain pen and fill it immediately!

UPDATE: TWSBI ECO Glow Purple Pre-Orders are now available! Match your ECO Glow Green, and the pens will ship on Halloween!

The T.G.S. Curated Shop is an authorized retailer of all brands sold.

1. Traveler’s Notebook 2023 Diaries (Standard and Passport). The 2023 Traveler’s Notebook Diary inserts are now available for purchase, in all five variants. The Standard size features Weekly Vertical, Weekly + Memo, and Monthly options, while the Passport size features weekly and monthly inserts. (Photos have not been updated yet, so even though 2022 is pictured, you will receive a 2023 edition.) We are fully stocked on most Traveler’s Notebook covers, refills, and accessories.

2. T.G.S. x Penwell Exclusive “Aged Red” Edition. The T.G.S. Penwell is back in stock, in our exclusive “Aged Red” finish. In case you missed yesterday’s post on how I use the Penwell and why I love it so much, check it out here.

3. Opus 88 Minty Fountain Pens. The latest release from Opus 88 features a cracked-ice style acrylic in “light blue” (really a teal green) and “orange” (really a coral) colors. This streamlined flat-top pen holds a ton of ink, and the Japanese-style eyedropper system ensures your pen is leak free on an airplane or in your bag.

4. Opus 88 Jazz Fountain Pen. This frosted cigar-shaped demonstrator also features Opus 88’s high-capacity Japanese-style eyedropper system, making it one of my personal favorite workhorses.

5. Nahvalur Nautilus Ebonite Fountain Pen. Nahvalur’s Flagship “Nautilus” fountain pen has fast become a preferred recommendation for those looking for a larger piston filler that won’t break the bank. You can read the review here.

6. Nahvalur “Original Plus” Fountain Pen. At an even more attractive price point, Nahvalur offers the “Original Plus,” a new take on their first fountain pen that features lightly swirled transparent acrylic with a high-capacity vacuum filling system. Full writeup here.

7. TWSBI ECO Fountain Pens. At only $32 for a high-quality piston-filler, it’s easy to see why the TWSBI ECO series is so popular. We have stock of recent releases including the Cerulean Blue and the “Glow Green,” with the “Glow Purple” on the way next week!

8. TWSBI 580 Fountain Pens. The first TWSBI is still a favorite, with a reliable piston-filling system, interchangeable nib units, and a variety of different finishes from which to choose. The big seller has been the iridescent “Iris” finish.

9. TWSBI Swipe Fountain Pens. The Swipe is TWSBI’s first fountain pen with a cartridge-converter option, making it perfect for those not quite ready to commit to bottled ink but who would still like the option. The Swipe comes in four colors: Prussian Blue, Smoke, Pear (light green), and Salmon (light orange). Read our write-up on why we like the Swipe here.

10. iLootPaperie Washi Tape. We recently added over a dozen new patterns of washi tapes to the shop, and restocked on many different favorites.
