Hi All:

I'm interested in buying a Rotring Art Pen 1.1.

or other calligraphy or stub nibbed pens that you might be willing to sell. I prefer nibs of .08 to 1.0 widths.

 

I do have Pilot 78G's, Pelikan Script 1.0 and a Shaeffer calligraphy set - so no need to try more of those. I use these pens for my every day writing and, very sadly, I seem to have misplaced my beloved Falcon with a perfect John Mottishaw CI nib. I'm in mourning!

 

Let me know if you might be willing to part with any pens that "fit the bill"!

Hi Z,

 

I'm not going to sell you my Rotring Art Pen, and I'm not sure if you are looking for something new, used, or NOS, but Sue Morris [Sue at Penboard here on FPN], through her website penboard.de in Germany, has a nice selection of Rotring pens, including Art Pens and the Millennium Art Pen series. There may be other places to buy Rotrings, but I've bought a few pens from Sue, no other affiliation, and she is really helpful - can't recommend her highly enough.

 

Good luck! DAVID

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
