That 14k Grieshaber Chicago #1 nib is a Wet Noodle with painterly softness and flow. Its size and lack of breather hole limit its max line width to the Flexible range but its variation is enhanced by Needlepoint hairlines under normal pressure. It lays down a smooth and consistent \u003cstrong\u003eXXF\u003c\/strong\u003e line that widens to a 3B+ (approx 1.8mm) under minimal pressure. Needlepoint hairlines, effortless variation, and reliable flow over its full range of flex make it an ideal choice for calligraphic writing styles such as Copperplate and Spencerian.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e: Overlay and trim have no dents, dings, brassing or other notable flaws.

At the low end was Park Row, followed by Marxton, with Eclipse being the top of the line. This top-of-the-line overlay is 14k gold-filled (as stamped near the top of the cap) over hard rubber. Ornate, Art Deco, machine turned pattern consisting of leaves, flowers, and vertical lines.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penchantment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53610247749931,"sku":null,"price":230.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0918\/5165\/3419\/files\/eclipse_fountain_pen_flexible_superflex_flex_14k_nib_Overlay_Retrofit_Wet_Noodle_restored_vintage.jpg?v=1779564583","url":"https:\/\/penchantment.com\/products\/1920s-eclipse-overlay-fountain-pen-retrofit-wet-noodle","provider":"Penchantment","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
