Nib 1.1mm gold plated steel nib. This is a factory italic nib and will write a bit like a cursive italic. JoWo calls this type of nib a cursive calligraphy nib but we don't know who made this one.
Condition Near mint condition with few signs of usage. There is some handwear which dulls the apperance a little but the matte finish is very strong. There are touches of plating wear on the corners of the clip and spots on the Colosseum. The most worn part of the pen is the converter. Ships in original Stipula box with paperwork and cartridge.
