Every year, Lamy releases some special edition colors for some of their pens – mostly, though, for their Safari and AL-Star series writing instruments.

This year’s special edition color is called “Bronze” and available in fountain pen, ballpoint pen, and rollerball.

The AL-Star series fountain pens, then, often also come with a matching ink, available as bottles and cartridges.

In this fountain pen review here below, I will mostly delve into the Bronze special edition color. If you are interested in seeing a review where I talk more about the AL-Star as a pen model, you can find a review of the black fountain pen here. And just for the record: a Safari review right here.

The Bronze Special Edition is widely available from retailers such as La Couronne du Compte or Appelboom, for instance (no affiliate – just a friendly pointer).

But now, check out the video-review below, which is as always preceded by some quick facts. Again, I hope the review is helpful and that you enjoy watching it!
