Lamy Safari Fountain Pen Cream

Amongst budget fountain pens, the Lamy Safari is clearly the creme de la creme, so it is entirely appropriate that we should have the Lamy Safari Fountain Pen Cream.  Long admired for its comfort, design, dependability and flawless writing, the Lamy Safari has introduced many to the joys of fountain pen use and there are few who don’t return to it regularly as an essential part of any pen user’s rotation.

The wonderful colour –  the Lamy Safari Fountain Pen in Cream is a special edition, so won’t be available indefinitely – wraps a little magic around this impeccable pen.  The grip is comfortable md gently nudges the user into a good writing position.  The material is robust and comfortable.  We’ve rhapsodised over the Z50 nib many times – an overlooked work of genius.

But it’s the colour:  a soft cream which, when paired with the other new colour Strawberry, conjures up images of Wimbledon, fetes and all that is most enjoyable about summer.
