EPISODE 20: THE PAPER MOUSE ANNIVERSARY FOUNTAIN PENS AND NOTEBOOKS

In a very special episode of Uncapped, we talk to Jenny and Victor, owners of The Paper Mouse in West Newton, Massachusetts, as well as their lead designer, artist Jean Gao. As the store celebrates its tenth anniversary, we will take a close look at two new Opus 88 exclusive fountain pens they designed for the event, as well as two exclusive notebooks. The pens are gorgeous, the notebooks are beautiful, and the conversation is engaging.
