TWSBI’s latest colour release, Caribbean with Onyx, is a bright turquoise with a ruthenium trim found of the clip, knob ring and nib.

With the piston mechanism there is no limit to ink colour choices. Choose a vibrant colour to match or clash, or go with something subdued to truly let the colour shine. TWSBI have a range of nib sizes, the ALR is available in extra fine, fine, medium, broad and stub 1.1.

Created in Taiwan, TWSBI design their pens by using traditional fountain pen mechanisms with a modern twist. Their goal to bring life back into traditional fountain pens, while incorporating modern elements that can be used and appreciated even in todays society. A feat, in which there is no doubt they have successfully managed.

The Diamond 580 ARL comes with a small bottle of grease and a spanner to undo all detachable parts which is useful for a thorough clean, however a word of warning, they are very difficult to fit back together once taken apart..
