TWSBI Eco Serpentine - Fine Nib
$72.00
If you've been pen-curious but haven't pulled the trigger, the TWSBI ECO is where most ink obsessions begin. It's a fully-featured, piston-filling fountain pen at a price that makes it a genuinely easy yes.
The ECO isn't a beginner pen that you graduate from. It's a daily writer that happens to be accessible. TWSBI (a Taiwanese manufacturer with 50+ years of precision engineering) designed it to deliver a real fountain pen experience without the intimidating price tag.
The clear resin barrel is a demonstrator, meaning you can see exactly how much ink you have left. It's practical and a little bit satisfying every time you hold it up to the light. It is a piston filler fountain pen. Simply unscrew the end cap, dip it into ink, screw the end cap back on, and you're done! Ready to write!!
The pen cap is able to post onto the back of the pen, and the cap has an inner cap to ensure a perfect seal when stored away.
Please note: Ink is NOT included
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?)
