Introducing the 2017 Lamy Al-Star Pacific fountain pen! |
Lamy Al-Star Pacific with matching ink. |
The beautiful turquoise color of this pen is distinctively different from other current Lamy Al-Star blue options. It's a lighter blue that Ocean Blue, and a more true blue than the Lamy Al-Star BlueGreen.

The Pacific is one of the more vibrant Al-Star special edition colors we've seen. The Lamy Al-Star was first released in 1997 with the Aluminum model, making this year the 20th anniversary! We started carrying Lamy back in early 2011, but Brian is privileged to own a pretty robust collection of past editions prior to that, all pictured here:
BlueGreen (2014 SE, now a regular edition), CopperOrange (2015 SE), Charged Green (2016 SE), and now Pacific (2017 SE).

One great tradition Lamy started doing a few years back is offering a special edition ink to match the pen. This year because of the similarities in color, the Lamy Pacific ink is a repackaging of the existing Lamy Turquoise color. The only difference is the color of the cap and a special box.
Lamy Turquoise is fabulous ink with great shading, so if you haven't given it a try, it's definitely worth it. But if you already have a bottle of Lamy Turquoise, you may want to skip on Lamy Pacific, however, since it is the same ink.

Lamy Pacific ink will be available at GouletPens.com in a 50ml bottle for $10.50, a five-pack of ink cartridges for $4.50, or a 2ml ink sample for $1.25. The cartridges can only be used in Lamy pens.
