Beautiful pen is good, but not perfect.
How nice to see this classic brand revived. In addition, the translucent barrel and cap are truly beautiful, and the nib writes smoothly. There are two things that prevent me from added the fifth star to my review. First, the nib dries out rather quickly, even with the cap fully screwed on to the barrel (yes, it's not a snap-on, it's a screw-on). After not using it for a day or two, I often have to shake it violently (just like in the old days) to get fresh ink. Also, when the pen is open there is a rather significant hard edge at the end of the thick barrel body, before the much slimmer black finger grip. The makes for a slightly uncomfortable grip. It's not a big issue, but most pens seem to manage not to have such an uncomfortable difference. Still, in all, a truly beautiful pen that writes well, at a reasonable price.

Return of a great pen brand
Extremely solidy pen and very nice write quality. The only reason it's a 4 star rating is that I wish there was more variety possible with the nib.
