Secrets of Feathers
RECIFE feathers
RECIFE nibs are crafted according to the purest traditions of writing. This process requires multiple steps and considerable expertise. As the unique link between hand and paper, each RECIFE nib meets demanding standards of flexibility and finish to offer the smoothest and most consistent writing possible.
RECIFE nibs are available in steel and 18K gold.
They are produced in different sizes - from size 5 to size 7 depending on the pen models on which they are mounted - and in different writing widths - fine, medium and broad.
Pens for calligraphic writing are also available.
