In this issue

IN THIS ISSUE: At 180 years, A.T. Cross is one of the oldest continually-running companies in U.S. history. A new vision for its line of fine writing instruments and accessories shows the secret to its success: adaptability. Italy's Montegrappa is showing the same strength with a strategic partnership, an expansion into leather and textile accessories lines, and a doubling down on its luxurious writing instruments. Japan's Wancher isn't just making stunning fountain pens, it's preserving urushi through its unique collections. Meanwhile, Ohio's Edison Pen Co. is a small brand with an outsized influence on the pen community. Also: "the little catalog that could," Blick Art Materials; the pen that Alan Turing loved, and the origins of "pen > sword." Plus: our redesigned special section, Trends in '26, celebrates elegance in multiple facets.
