Armando Simoni Club Oversized Bologna Blue Saffron Celluloid Fountain Pen
The Greek Key pattern appears on the cap band as it has since Armando Simoni introduced it on his pens. Greek Key bands now also decorate the barrel above the grip section.
Pen aficionados will appreciate the superb writing characteristics from the combination of a large (No. 8 size) ‘Magic Flex’ 18k solid gold nib, and an innovative ebonite feed that flexes to provide superb ink flow. Everything about this design enables you to vary the line width by changing the amount of pressure on the nib as you write. Be careful not to push too hard, as you can bend this flexible nib.
The old-fashioned turning knob and piston is superseded by a large volume, quick-acting pneumatic filling system. Unscrew the cap at the top end of the barrel, pull the plunger outward, put your finger on the hole, immerse the nib in ink, then push the plunger into the barrel to fill the pen. Re-tighten the knob and you are ready to write.
