I thought and fought, and finally caved in, deciding it's my birthday gift to myself. Nahvalur's Lunar New Year Special Edition 2025, #YearOfTheSnake fountain pen. It actually arrived, quite auspiciously, on Lunar New Year's Day itself. Thank you, @brewergnome.bsky.social for showing it to me. 🥲 - ThreadSky

that's gorgeous!

himmapaan.bsky.social•26 days ago

Two more. Indulge me.

I can't get both the nib and the clip in focus at once, but there are green stones for the snake clip's eyes.

Stop it! You’re making me so jealous!! 😉

himmapaan.bsky.social•26 days ago

Oh, this is divine. And you are very deserving.

thisbrokenwheel.bsky.social•26 days ago

I was VERY tempted to get one of these for myself. So, good job!

thecreepingmoon.bsky.social•26 days ago

Omgg I love that!

captain-ptero.bsky.social•26 days ago

Wow, that's so pretty!

rafaelmenai.bsky.social•26 days ago

This looks badass

Oh that is a gorgeous pen! The colors paired with that gold, and the details are a perfect touch.

Happy birthday! 🐍

Mine disappointed me by having most of the barrel in pearly white. I am consoling myself that it's dilute greenish-yellow, as one of my cats is a dilute torbie.

himmapaan.bsky.social•26 days ago

Aw, I'm sorry. 😥

passeriform.bsky.social•26 days ago

I am coming to love it. But I do like murky greens.

himmapaan.bsky.social•26 days ago

I'm certain it's beautiful in its own right, but I completely understand how disappointing it would be if one were expecting a much more obviously green & gold pen! I would have been, too, especially as I so love the combination.
