Information has now been out for a short while about the upcoming London Pen Show, however an announcement email today could well be of interest to those of you in two minds.

Simply put it is the announcement that more brands will be at the show including Omas, Pineider, Nahvalur, Andhand, Scriveiner, Recife and ST Dupont.

Now it could be argued Omas partly have been before, but that was just as The Pen Family, and really they are more an offshoot of Nahvalur, so one assumes sharing a table (in fact they officially are neighbouring tables on the same stretch). There have been rumours about Pineider in the past, even of Dante Del Vecchio giving a presentation, which would be really interesting both in information and as there’s no space. One would suspect the organisers would need to hire the meeting/conference room near the toilets/gym and be a paid ticket only event if ever it did occur. For me the interesting one is ST Dupont as they are a hard brand to actually look at and try in this country.

The table plan and full vendor list can be found here. And the main web page with links is here.

So am I looking forwards more to the show? Well for me there’s a catch. I can’t make it. I will be else where for a family stone setting (unveiling of a tomb stone) for an uncle who died about 6-8 months ago.
