Tom's Studio - Fountain Pen Nibs

Beauty is in the eye of the pen holder – please read my FAQs to help you make the best choice when choosing your nib.

Made exclusively for our fountain pens, all of my nibs are tipped with incredibly hard-wearing iridium for super smooth writing, and are plated in a 14k gold or Stainless Steel for a classically stunning look. As a bonus all nibs can be interchanged so you can easily write in different styles whenever it suits you.

  • Extra Fine Semi-Flex - A beautiful extra fine fountain pen nib with flex! This is a great middle-ground between the Pro Flex and our classic fountain pen nib, with its smooth writing experience and minimal maintenance. By applying a little pressure the nib will flex from 0.5mm to 1.5mm.
  • Fine - A springy and smooth nib perfect for delicate thin strokes, with a smidge of flex if you're feeling creative.
  • Medium - The go-to nib for the author, journaller or note-taker. This is a firm and consistent nib for everyday writing.
  • Cursive Italic B -  A specialised nib designed to produce line variations in handwriting. It is a type of italic nib that has a smooth, rounded tip that is slightly flattened on the sides. This flattening creates two distinct writing surfaces: a broader downstroke (1mm(+-0.1)) and a thinner horizontal stroke (hairline - 0.2 mm).
  • Architect - This is the opposite of the Italic nib, with a broad cross stroke and a thin down stroke. It's my personal favourite – the effortless big juicy lines make it my go-to for sketching and everyday use. It has nice line variation and strokes around 1.2mm at it's thickest (horizontal) and 0.3mm on the downstroke. You can also use the nib upside down for a super fine hairline stroke.
  • Titanium Flex - This beauty is the ultimate flex as it's a lot softer than stainless steel nibs. It's perfectly paired with our fountain pens to practice calligraphy when you just want to get cracking without having to prep all your nibs and ink or you're out and about. Titanium is also bombproof so it will carry on writing for decades to come. It's the best flex nib with the least maintenance.

If you're looking for a professional grade nib my Pro-Flex Nib (PATENT PENDING) has been designed from the ground up and has a few novel features which separate it from the your standard flex nib. See it in all it's glory here.

Love it

Would buy again. Surprisingly pretty all purpose. I use it in my bullet journal/planner. I can make headings and entries with one nib.

Insanely great nib.

I have a very large collection of fountainpens including all great brands and a large variation of nibs, but this nib is by far the best nib I have ever used. It is the Stradivarius amongst fountain pen nibs. A true masterpiece I recommend everyone!!

Exactly what I wanted

I press exceedingly hard when I am writing but am only interested in the finest of lines. This nib delivers. It is also amazingly good at being flexible when I am playing with what’s written on the paper

Great Nib with Good Line Variation.

I purchased this nib in broad as I like bold writing. It’s works well and looks great.
