The LAMY studio elegantly shows just how close design and art can be. This premium writing instrument seamlessly fuses its individual elements with its convex cylindrical form while simultaneously foregoing all unnecessary embellishments. The propeller-shaped, seemingly twisted clip counters the objective elegance of the LAMY studio with an innovative design accent.
This 2021 special edition has a deep and dark green/grey body, almost black in appearance, with subtle sparkles. Black Forest evokes the imagery and feeling of sitting and writing next to a shimmering creek in the dense forest of southwestern Germany. It is equipped with a high gloss chrome grip and clip, and an interchangeable silver steel nib. This fountain pen comes with a blue LAMY ink cartridge and a Z27 converter for use with bottled ink so you can get started writing right away.
Note: To ensure quality performance, LAMY tests their pens as a final step in manufacturing. If you happen to see any residual blue ink, rest assured that this is normal.
I happened to come across Truphae in a thread on Reddit about Black Friday sales, so I moseyed on over and checked them out. I was only anticipating window shopping, since buying fountain pens is out of reach of our discretionary budget. Then, I saw that they had the Lamy Studio in Black Forest in stock.
For me, the Studio Black Forest is “the one that got away.” I got out of the hobby around the time it came out because there wasn’t any money for spending, and I just didn’t have the energy for hobbies. I loved the look of the pen though, and wished it were in my collection. So when I found it here, at a 30% discount, my jaw dropped and I told my husband that the next time I could buy a pen that I hoped it was still in stock. He told me to get it as part of my Christmas present. I ordered it immediately, and Truphae shipped it quickly.
It was packaged securely, and the pen box itself was clean and damage-free from any storage. It was a great value, and anytime I don’t have to add hassle into a consumer interaction is a great experience!
The pen is such a lovely writer, it shows the shading of Robert Oster’s Sinners Weed amazingly, and has a nice flow without being too wet. The nib is smooth, the heft of the pen is fabulous. I have hypermobility in my hands, and the thicker grip makes it a lot easier to write for long periods of time, as well as helps me not overextend my fingers. My only gripe is that I’m a sweaty human, so my hand slips on the grip pretty frequently, but that’s nothing since it doesn’t hurt and the pen overall is perfect for me.
I received exactly what I ordered when they said it would be delivered.
I have a growing collection of Lamy fountain pens. The Studio is definitely one of my favorites because of how balanced it is and its classy design. I wasn’t sure how smooth the EF steel nib was going to be but once I started writing with it, I loved it immediately. It’s always ready to go and has a smooth flow. I felt a really good ink for it was Diamine 160th Anniversary Canalside. It’s a match made in heaven. Already have another Studio from Truphae on the way! They ship quickly as if they are just exited for you to use your new pen as you are.
Beautiful pen, I will be ordering more pens. I waited for the pen and ink to write a letter and give the ink as a gift with a glass
This pen gets top marks for appearance, feel, and performance. With respect to appearance, the contours are sleek and appealing; and the finish is, in a word, gorgeous (although I must say I can't see even a hint of green in the dark grey color--even in direct sunlight). The sparkles are very subtle and add interest without being distracting. As for feel, the pen has a wonderful heft and balance. I never post a pen's cap when writing, and I can't speak to the pen's feel when posted, but I find the feel of it in my hand unposted to be ideal. The gripping section is also very comfortable: the diameter is less than that of the Lamy Aion, but more than that of the Lamy Safari. Finally, with respect to the all-important criterion of performance, I bought an extra fine nib, which is only very slightly broader than, say, a Japanese (Pilot or Sailor) fine nib, but is quite a bit finer than Lamy's own fine nib (which has always struck me as closer to medium than fine). The nib is firm (which I prefer to a softer nib), but smooth and responsive with just the right amount of feedback. In sum, this has become one of my favorites in a large collection of fountain pens.
