It’s a mouthful of a description. That’s because it’s a lot of nib. The pen it comes in isn’t half bad, either. A no-name overlay eyedropper pen, this went up on FPN several weeks ago, and after many seconds of dithering, I decided it belonged to me.

The cartouche is unengraved, and the hard black rubber body remains black and shiny.

Vintage music nibs are rare enough, but flexible music nibs are higher on the rare scale. This one adds a little more mindblowingness to that by being somewhat oblique, as well.

The new favorite pen is filled with Styl’ Honoré’s Cocktail ink in Velours bleu.

The arrival of this pen more than makes up for the return of my cold and sore throat. I’ll write my own get-well cards.
