OMAS Milord Celluloid With 14K Portico Nib
This is an opportunity to have your pen and flex it too. The 14K Portico nib was created specially for the Cotton Resin Bologna. These nibs fit nicely in the Celluloid Milord. We offer this nib specifically for our customers who are looking for nibs with additional flexibility. If you just want a non-flex pen the 18K correct nib is as good a nib as you can get.

The 14k nib lends itself to this flexible modification because of its springy nature. This customization is done by removing some of the gold from the underside of the tines. An 18K nib is too soft. If modified, it would bend and not bounce back.

This is a sample done with the 14K Portico nib that has flex added to it. This writing samples is much enlarged. The actual size of this sample is less than half a inch tall.

Above are close up images of the 14K two-tone Portico nibs set in the Milord Arco GFT on the left and Milord Arco HT on the right. Because the nibs are two-tone they complement both color trims. This flexible 14K nib can also be placed in the Arte Italiana Milord black resin pen.
The flex customization adds $65.00 to the price of these pens. Any other additional customizations such as Italic, Stub or Oblique would add $35.00 to the flex customization charge.
