My Edison Family

[allanorn]

If you like the Beaumont and have smaller hands, look at the Encore.

Here it is in relation to an Edison Morgan and a Namiki Falcon. The Encore is in the middle. It is light and well balanced both posted and unposted. In the first post in this thread, there are more pictures for comparison.

Looks like Brian doesn't make the Encore any longer, unless it was rebranded. But that looks really similar to a Beaumont. I'll have to see if he rebranded the Encore or if there's a similar replacement... or try to pry one from someone in the used market.

The Encore used to be a production model exclusive to Goulet Pens. They discontinued it as a Production line, but Brian still makes them by request. Just send him an email.

So. Edison group buy announcement due any day now....

I know. I inked up my Beaumont just to remind myself how good of a pen it is while we wait for the announcement.

What are some good Edison models for those of us who like the Beaumont? I have kid-sized hands (well, men's S/size 7 gloves) and like the balance and weight of the Beaumont, but wouldn't mind reaching out for another pen. I was thinking of the standard Mina.

Or a Pearlette

Sorry, but please sit tight on this announcement. I'm about to publish a blog post today saying that we are going to wait until after the DC Pen Show to announce this.

I was hoping to have this done and announced this week, but I really overestimated what we could accomplish post-vacation, and pre-DC Pen Show prep. Just way too much being juggled right now, so the week of the 11th we'll get this rolling. Sorry!

Thanks for taking time to update us. You must be incredibly busy right now.

Thanks for the update. I'm looking forward to getting my first Edison!

Here's my new Edison pens. I got to meet Brian and his wife at the dc show. What a great couple. They even remembered my crazy orange pen

.



The blue is Morgan.
The green is Menlo.

The blue is Caribbean blue. Great color for those looking at the goulets limited edition.

Great choices. Those are beautiful! And I'm officially envious because I haven't met Brian Gray yet.

I was at his booth very early. So early the poor guy was still setting up. It took me an hour to pick my pens, Brian was friendly the whole time. Once pens were picked Brian and his wife talked to me for about 30 minutes. I was really amazed they took the time to chat. Btw....Brian remembers this thread....I bet he would remember your member name. Gosh, how does he do it?

[klpeabody]

Beautiful materials, and beautiful pens. Enjoy. =)

Lol it took me almost a year to figure out my Beaumont PN I ordered right before the show.

Not only was Brian friendly the whole correspondence
He was super careful that I felt unpressured to buy before it felt right

Amazing service

Yum-A-Liscious! What nibs do they have?

Wait, have we ever seen your crazy orange pen?

Yup! It's at the very top of this thread. It has the mix-n-match caps.

My orange pen with two caps is at the beginning of the thread. The new pens have stub nibs. I was just thinking today....my pen collection looks like candy.

[snedwos]

My pair emerged from the dc show still childless. Just as well, actually.

[GING GING]

I picked the Beaumont. I love bright orange and wanted a funky fun pen. Once I ordered it I know my budget would be tight for another nice pen.....thus I had Brian make another cap. It's fun...like a pen wardrobe. .

I have no regrets getting the pen. It's hands down an express of me. I know the pen colors are not majority of what people want....but it suits my personality.

Now the problem is....I want another one. I hoping to order another edison pen at the holidays.

This really is a great looking looking pen. It makes me want to eat candy

[Crazyorange]

Thank you ging ging.
It's my favorite pen. When I get some time I'll post all the pens together. A candy bowl of edison

I totally get you. Anyone remember Carmen Miranda's "Fruit Hat"? That's how I think of my pen collection.(Wish I could draw).

[Crazyorange]

OMG! I love Carmen Miranda. Going fruity for pens?

Picture her hat, only with all your pens stuck on it. Fruity Nibs!
