Nib Guide

Since it’s the part of the fountain pen that touches the paper, the nib has a major impact on how each pen writes. Most LAMY fountain pens feature Extra Fine, Fine, Medium and Broad nibs, so here’s a look at each nib size and what it does best.

Extra Fine

Extra Fine nibs are sharp and precise, with the narrowest line in the LAMY range. EF nibs excel at detailed handwriting and updating your busy schedule in your diary, and also leave the least ink on the page, helping it to dry faster. Perfect for those with tight, neat handwriting.

Fine

Fine nibs are a touch broader than EF nibs, allowing the ink to flow more generously, which creates a richer line on the page, and also lets the pen glide more gracefully across the page.

Medium

Medium nibs are broader again, delivering a thick, vivid line as it moves across the page. That extra ink also helps the pen to flow as you write, and makes your handwriting look even more lively and vibrant. If you’re starting out with fountain pens, a Medium nib is a great introduction.

Broad

Broad nibs make for handwriting that’s full of flourishes and line variations, which lends a vibrancy to letters, notes and journal entries. It’s a lively experience, and can be quite stunning, but the amount of ink on the page means it can be hard to manage for fountain pen newcomers, with greater chances of blurring or smudging.

Add a subtle sophistication to your handwriting with the shapely design and invigorating finish of LAMY's elegant Royal Red Matte Studio Fountain Pen.

Deeply elegant in every respect, the studio Royal Red Matte Special Edition is an exceptionally sophisticated writing instrument that marries LAMY’s timeless design language to an understated futuristic touch, resulting in breathtaking smooth lines and alluring shapes. The subtle, counter-intuitive shape of the clip evokes the curve of a propeller, adding a detail to this exquisite pen that is at once graceful and mechanical. But the heart of LAMY's Bauhaus-inspired design philosophy is built on the principle of form following function, and the studio's polished steel nib delivers the kind of balletic movement and smooth ink flow that LAMY is famous for, with the comforting heft and graceful writing that you'd expect from LAMY's impeccable engineering.

Complementing the studio's graceful form, the Royal Red Matte finish brings a fiery warmth to this sleek pen, and lends it a human touch that's both powerful and inviting.
