Fountain Pen Storage

Now that I am becoming more of a collector of fountain pens I have been looking for a nice way to store my pen that will keep them save and neat. I had a few spare moments to stop at the local art store near me. Prizm Art Store on McKnight Road in Pittsburgh.

Well I found a nice neat way to store my pens. A Leather Zippered Pencil Case. Here is what I found at Jerry's Artarama. The only different I can see it that the local store has these much cheaper. I only paid $12 for a case that would hold 48 pencils or about 24 fountain pens. The case is dual zippered each half hold 24 colored pencils or 12 fountain pens. The way the case fold and closes keeps the pens from falling out and there are elastic straps to slip the fountain pens into to keep them from bouncing around once they are placed in their new home.  I am so happy to have spotted this and makes the desk a little neater and clears up the olde pen cup.
