If you have one or more of the top tier fountain pens, then they deserve proper storage to keep them safe from scratches and dust. This handmade leather pen case is the perfect solution. It’s an affordable way to show off your favorite pens, and it keeps them safe on the go in your bag or pocket so that they don’t get lost or damaged.
The case is made from luxury storage with leather pen case, which is incredibly strong and should hold up to years of use. It’s also soft and flexible enough to accommodate your pens without damaging them. The craftsmanship on the case is excellent as well, with no loose stitching or unfinished edges.
In addition to the premium leather, the interior of the case is lined with a plush microfiber material that’s very gentle on pen finishes. It also features a unique design that makes it easier to slide your pens in and out. The pen slots are wide and spaced far apart, which allows for a better fit for larger pens. The only drawback to this is that it can cause some pens to rub against each other and leave marks. My Noodler’s Ahab and Konrad both left faint red marks on the interior of the case, but the Ahab was more noticeable due to its size.
A window on both sides of the case reveals the contents, which is a great feature for those who like to display their pens and share them with others. The lid of the case is secured with a magnetic closure, which provides a satisfying snap when closed. There are no knobs or handles sticking out of the case, which gives it a clean and minimal look.
Galen Leather is a company that has become very popular with stationery fans. They’re known for their high quality and fair prices. The company was founded by Zeynep, who passed away in July 2019. Her family is continuing to build on her legacy and devotion to quality handmade products.
The company is based in Istanbul, Turkey, where they handcraft leather notebook covers, laptop and iPad cases, and travel accessories made with high quality Tomoe River Paper. The company has a large and growing lineup of products, with many different sizes and styles available.
I had the opportunity to review two of Galen’s latest products, the 3-pen zippered case and the 5-pen zippered case. Both are made from Crazy Horse brown leather, a beautiful vegetable-tanned leather from the Italian tannery Conceria Walpier. This particular leather is famous for its ability to withstand abrasions, resist moisture, and maintain its shape over time. It’s also quite friendly to fountain pens, with the rough surface of the leather being very durable and resistant against ink scratches. This is why it’s often used for expensive designer bags, belts and wallets. The tannery has been in business for over 40 years, and they’re well-known for their superior leathers. Their Buttero grade is considered to be one of the best vegetable-tanned leathers available.
