When it comes to nibs there are a number of choices and with good reason: every person's handwriting is different! Lamy offers the perfect nib for every style of writing and every preference. In principle, you can combine most Lamy Fountain Pens with the Z50 Lamy nib to create your perfect writing instrument.

                                                                                                                                                                                                      Calligraphy nibs are also known as cursive or italic nibs. Rather than having an iridium ball, they have a straight, flat tip. This permits the writer to create a script with different stroke weights – perfect for beautiful penmanship.
