Akkerman Vulpen

These guys «nailed it», as far as customer service goes. I ordered 6 bottles of ink to be shipped to California. Store Manager «Paul» assisted me with the process, communicated effectively with me via email and quoted me a shipping time of 2 weeks. I actually received my items in 1 week and I am quite pleased. An excellent buying experience from some real pros. Thank you!

With smart phones and laptops all over the place, there is still room for a hand written thank you note and a good pen. Right here at Passage 15 in Central Den Haag is a classic pen shop that I return to every time I’m in town. And they’ve been around since 1910 and know their writing instruments, and in a friendly and accessible manner.
Actually my penmanship is atrocious and is nothing like the neat and beautifully flowing left-​handed writing of my parents. But I still like a good pen for its heft, good feel, comfortable writing, and maybe as a piece of pocket jewelry.
At P.W. Akkerman, you’ll find an extensive pen selection for all budgets, plus fine papers, notebooks, and other accessories. And then there’s that unique 100^th Anniversary Ink Bottle that is more art than fountain pen supply…
