Disappointing
One of the reasons I went for this pen was bec. of the way you fill the pen with ink in a way where you don't get ink on your fingers - which you don't, but my fingers are covered in ink which seems to come out between where the nip end screws onto the chamber, even when it is tightened fully it seems to come out and get ink all over your fingers. It is very disappointing and frustrating from a pen that cost 78.80. It is not really acceptable for it to leak at this price point. This issue outweighs the smoothness or how nice the rose gold looks. I'm writing with it just feeling disappointed. The quality does 'look' good but it leaks so it's a 1 from me.

Nib choices for fountain pens
If we show the pen with the default nib selection shown in stock it means we have stock of that pen. If you select another nib size and the website doesn't say "in stock" we can usually supply that pen immediately as we keep extensive supplies of nibs from all our manufacturers.
Wonderful Pen!
This was my first step into non budget pens (obviously budget is subjective) and I was nervous spending more-especially after reading the 1 review on here. I need not have worried as the pen is both beautiful and has the smoothest nib and fabulous writing experience. I have many more pens since this but this one is in constant use.
