Just bought the TWSBI Eco Smoke Rose Gold the other day. Can't wait to try it. I could (arguably should) have not been so frivolous and bought a regular Eco, but I figure I may as well have one "fancy" pen in my formative years in the fountain pen world.
My very first pen was a Twsbi Eco White and Rose Gold from you guys. 🥺 It's my favorite thing in the world currently. Such a gorgeous pen. Looks gorgeous filled with Noodler's Black Swan in Australian Roses. You've gained a loyal customer for life! XD Just got the Limited Edition Draco and Conklin Endura Abalone in Chrome along with a whole bunch of ink samples. 🤭 Keep up the good work guys! Love your content just as much as I love your business! 💕 Make sure Drew knows that he draws a top notch smiley face. 😊
Congratulations Drew.. on the new gig ! You've earned it. There are other pen retailers, but none that truly compare to the love and friendliness of Goulet Pens.. you are a big part of this. Well done sir! Frank from Boulder, Colorado
This is what I got for Christmas from my mom!! I also got the Robert Oster Rose Gold Antiqua ink, and I’ve written with this combo in my Hobonichi Techo every single day of 2022 so far. I just love it so much :) The sparkles look super good on Tomoe river paper, even with my fine nib.
Thank you, Drew. I own a number of pens, but my only piston-fill FP (a classic black 1991 Pelikan M200) has a crack right through the upper threading on the grip Section, allowing ink to seep out unexpected on fingers holding the grip..and when capped, coats the inside of the cap as well. I despaired, accepting this was not fixable when I spotted this video. I was *instantly* captivated by the TWSBI Eco Smoke RoseGold FP. And the Robt Oster ink Rose Gold Antigua! Brilliant combination, Drew! Since I am bereft of my Pelikan piston full - and find those easier (& cleaner!) to fill, I've put in an order for both the pen and that specific ink *because of your presentation!* So, thank you again!
Hi Drew! My name is Tina 🤣& I just received my TWSBI Diamond 580 (fine), it’s my first 580; & it’s in Smoke/Rose Gold II... I inked it with Robert Oster Rose Gold Antiqua. It’s just beautiful and it’s my new favorite TWSBI pen. Thank you Drew for the recommendation & you are so right it’s a perfect ink/pen combo... Sparkly Rose Gold shimmer goodness and a Great video!
I couldn't wait to get my hands on this pen and it arrived on my doorstep in Feb 2021. It's the first broad nib in my collection, all because I wanted to use ink with shimmer and sparkle. Very smooth writer. I filled it with a sample I had here at home: J Herbin Stormy Grey. After seeing this video, I know the next ink I need to add to my ever-growing collection of ink. Plus, the mini's cap posts by screwing on? Yup. I need that too! I'm gonna go broke this year, all on pens and paper and ink.
Good to see you in your new role as product ambassador at Goulet Pens! Just bummed that means we will see less of Brian, I’m guessing. I have all those pens except for the white Rose gold mini and I love using Australian Roses and the R.O. Rose Gold Antiqua for these pens. Also, another GREAT combo is KWZ Brown-Pink!!
That is a pretty pen. I'm half tempted to add one of those to my collection of TWSBI Ecos. Next time I fill one of my Ecos from an ink sample vial, I am going to try what you did in this video. It would be a lot easier than filling it through the feed with a syringe.
I dont know why my shimmer inks doesn't work on my twsbi.. i tried inking my twsbi diamond 580 smoke rg with diamine kong girls buy no sheen nor shimmer can be seen, i assume it got clogged. Any tips regarding this?
@@Gouletpens Six month (too) late(r) and this pen is FINALLY mine 😊💖 (Including some warm, spicy walnut-y colors) #SoSatisfying So DOUBLE thanks, Drew, for your demos, tips & recommendations!
Great review of the ECO rose gold pens, thanks. Also appreciated the puns... However, I'd love it if you had more light. I really couldn't tell the color of the Rose Gold ink...what is more pink, red, burgundy or brown?? That would be helpful. Thanks again.
@@Gouletpens lol. I conveniently searched the Goulet website, Drew. You guys bring the world to the fountain pen enthusiast. If only I could get one of those Emeraude de Chicken stickers. Headed to the site now. **fingers crossed**
Already did, kinda! I was Andrew for 2 months and my Mom decided she didn't like people trying to call me "Andy" so she got it changed. I'm just plain 'ole Drew now! :)
@@johnbranch17 it probably will be never. A logo is what represents the company and product. It's not a failure or such lol. Everyone has different tastes and the cap logo is the best suitable positioning for a logo. Knockoff or reproductions are the only ones without logos. There are still quality pens with minimal hidden logos to none. The Lilliput is a good one imo.
I bought this smoke rose gold twsbi eco just for the purpose of showing off my azure kingfisher! Pens of this caliber are built for shimmering ink! I like watching the glitters splashing around the large pen body...

that is by far the best fill i've seen come from a sample vial. hats off to you Drew!
Why, thank you! I've had a lot of practice. - Drew

Wow! Thank you so much for that! It has always been and continues to be a pleasure. :) - Drew
Nice to see a rose gold TWSBI in action. Drew, thank you for showing how to fill a TWSBI Eco from ink samples.
Thanks for watching! - Drew

what size of nib are you using in the video? fine? medium??
Just picked up this and the indigo/bronze along with socoro dip pen from your site. Cant wait!
A writing sample...yay. I got this pen when it came out, and it is amazing.
Diamine Caramel Sparkle is an excellent ink match, too. I have it in my 1.1mm rose gold 580. Gorgeous combo.
I used diamine sparkle sands and it was far to light a color to write with. Going to try it with diamine divine wine
Hi Drew, just wondering what size nib you were writing with? Thanks
I am wondering this too!

Sloshy mcshloshins! Thanks for showing off the ink with that pen. Beautiful!
Inspired me to fill my piston fill demonstrator (non-Twsbi, I'm afraid)
Haha glad you liked it! - Drew
Now they need to do the smoke rose gold in the Diamond Mini... I am so in love with my mini, but a “matched set” would be nice.
I too have a diamond mini and would be all over a rose gold version.
That is an AMAZING color ink combo for that pen! 😍

I watch all these videos, keep up the great work!
We'll keep 'em coming! - Drew

Love this pen & ink combo! What size nib are you using?
I love it... "this belongs to Brian. So I don't care."
That is the most stubborn no sloshy ink I've seen.
Right? How dare it. - Drew
"No rollies" love it. I'm using that lol
Considering getting one, but what size nib was used here?

Perfect pen for shimmering inks. You get the shimmer inside and outside of the pen!.

Just B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L 😎🔥👏 !!! Thank you for the demo!

Did I just hear an Aladdin reference???? Seriously, Robert Oster inks are becoming my favorite inks.
Yeah you did! - Drew
Will the rose gold plating fade?
Nope! - Drew

What size nib on the writing sample at the end?
Any idea of the nib size in this video, I can't make it out, thanks?
Always be Drew to yourself! LOL! Very nice presentation, is this ink a normal dry time? Looks wonderful like it's right out of a forge, melted gold.
I couldn't stop if I tried! - Drew
What nib size is this pls?
I need the mini in smoke & rose gold 😍 Should I hold my breath for it? 😆
“Come on, gravity”🥰
Right!? I mean, come on! - Drew
Was this released in 2021 or 2020?
Does anyone know a similar dry-ish/lower flow pink ink, but without the shimmer?
I'm gonna call this set my Pokemon collection because I got em all!! Thanks Goulet!
Did you travel across the land? Did you search far and wide? - Drew
@@Gouletpens lol. I conveniently searched the Goulet website, Drew. You guys bring the world to the fountain pen enthusiast. If only I could get one of those Emeraude de Chicken stickers. Headed to the site now. **fingers crossed**
@@alishaalexander3580hey what do you do with so many pens
Thanks for another solid video!
What's the price sir
$49.99
I knew that was Drew just from the gesticulation.
Nice video, cool ink and pens, was that an Addams Family reference at the beginning?
Nah, my hand is still connected. :). - Drew
All I saw was Thing as well!
oh nice. the finial is accented white.
love it! NICE!
The ECO should have the Rose Gold mechanism as well as the 580 IMO.
Bonus points to Drew for the Aladdin reference.
Thank you! - Drew
Drew, I'd like you to use another light. I think the one you have here is not really good for showing ink colors.
Are these pens limited edition?
As of now, the plan is for this pen to be available ongoing. - Drew
Love mine !!! 🤩
That’s pretty
dont you think its too fat pen?
No, I think the grip is narrow enough that it's very comfortable. - Drew
"I shall remain Drew." 😂. The option is always there to change your name if you want to.
Already did, kinda! I was Andrew for 2 months and my Mom decided she didn't like people trying to call me "Andy" so she got it changed. I'm just plain 'ole Drew now! :)
Muy bonita!!!
Gravity has been defeated!
The day is mine! Haha! - Drew
You looked like you were drawing blood there!
i hate that red logo on the cap... that prevents me to buy a twsbi and i really want one :(
A black vinyl would cover it with ease js
i ll wait till they match the logo with the pen but thanks! In my opinion this is a design fail.

I completely agree! - Drew
If you're Asiam buy extra fine nib, as Twsbis nib is made in Germany so it's broader than normal Asian nibs
I usually hate rose gold. I prefer gold gold. But TWSBI almost makes rose gold look like 24k gold. I do still HATE that ink, however.
That ink is thicc
Nope not curious... smoke is great, but rose gold is just not me.
