I think the lesson here is that an expensive hand-made item may have some imperfections, but you may also get better treatment from the maker.

Wise remark. You're completely right.

 

Awesome pen !

Looks intriguing! That's the sort of nib I'd want, so I'm glad you posted the pictures.

Yay! I have just received the Romilli pen from Spain Romillo factory.

 

The nib looks fantastic and shiny all over. They cleaned up the underneath the nib and it's even shiny there as well.

 

I put Iroshizuku take-sumi ink and it writes really well. I just tried Sailor Jentle ink before I put Iroshizuku and the ink flow wasn't good and it completely stopped writing. Go figure.

 

I'm so happy that the nib looks brand-new.

 

Thank you! Mr. Alvaro

Beautiful! My perfect nib size! You want me to take care of it for you?????? I'll hug it and pet it and feed it nice ink and take it for long writing sessions...

[PabloAU]

Wow, what a difference! It looks fantastic now. I have a feeling you'll be enjoying this nib for many, many years to come.

I have discovered that no matter which ink I put it in, it stops writing after a couple of paragraphs and CC was still not fully fill up. The same issues were still there.

The Sil #9 with double broad nib is very thirsty for a little CC system.

 

As I have mentioned to Mr. Alvaro at Romillo Pens, he proposed a new pen with my BB nib.

So I took an advantage of the opportunity, I had ordered the ...

 

Essential #9 in Black & Red veins

Eyedropper filling system

Semi-flexible nib

Lentil solid gold

 

So, my birthday is coming up and this is the best gift I've ever had.

 

I will pack it up and ship out to Spain.

 

 

I can see another Romillo pen with "K" flexible nib in extra fine on the horizon.

I'd better start saving and sell off the pens I'm not using.

Can you not use this pen as an eyedropper? Just take the converter out and load the barrel with ink? Grease on the threads of course.

He said it's built differently.
