ID request

Bought this unknown mineral from a recent local rock and lapidary show, and it came from a bin of assorted fluorescent mineral chunks, but the seller was fully u sure what it was. Photos under 365 because I have misplaced my lower wave torches. There are teeny flecks of bright blue as well, but the camera on my phone did not pick them up well.

Three new pencils

Whilst shopping for fountain pen ink today, I scooped up a couple of Blackwings (including a Haring edition that I missed out on a few months back) and this Leuchtturm pencil (curious to see how it performs).

New pen and ink

Visited a couple of local shops today and came home with this Wearingeul glass dip pen and three new inks...going to give them a test run tomorrow.

I swung by the two most prominent pen/stationery shops in town today and came away with this little haul...Octopus Fluids 'Sepia Schwarz' Octopus Fluids 'Sea Serpent', Wearingeul 'The Hound of the Baskervilles', one Sailor 'Fude de Mannen' pen and a Wearingeul glass dip pen.

$10 got me all this just this afternoon...almost overlooked the Berol leads. Apparently the Chung Hwa pencils had sat in the office of a small, independent local Chinese restaurant since the 1980s.
