TWSBI Diamond 580AL Fountain Pen - Iceberg Blue

Brand: TWSBI

Quantity: 1 fountain pen, choosing from five nib choices, including EF, F, M, B, Stub1.1 nib

The Diamond 580AL Iceberg Blue Fountain Pen features a piston filling mechanism, a smooth-writing steel nib, a screw-on cap with an interior cap to keep ink from drying out, and a beautiful faceted demonstrator body with an aluminum machined grip, connector, and piston rod. 

By fusing the traditional mechanisms of the fountain pen with a modern industrial design, we have created an eye-catching fountain pen that is simultaneously appreciative of the past and relevant in the present. The Diamond 580 comes with a benchmark ink-filling mechanism and has all detachable parts. We felt that it was important to allow the user to disassemble and reassemble the pen and completely experience the traditional aspects of owning and using a fountain pen.

Please note: This pen only uses bottled ink, and ink is NOT included. We are working hard to add some ink to our collection, stay tuned!

A quick no brainer guide in choosing nib sizes in an overly complicated fountain pen world:

If you write small, go with an EF
For the normal writer, F is the most popular
If you tend to lean on a bigger font, M will be perfect
B is for statements!! Sign a check in B, write a header in B, do some coloring/shading in B
Stub nibs are italic in writing style (have a special card or invitation to write?)
