Description

Size 6 Calligraphy Replacement Nib for the larger Conway Stewart pens

Why not treat yourself to a calligraphy nib that you can simply swop with your "day to day" nib on your Conway Stewart pen?

Have the ability to write those special "Thank You" notes in a style with good line variation that makes your hand-writing look so special. 

There are 2 types of size 6 calligraphy nibs available : 

  1. Gold plated steel 1.1mm calligraphy nib. This nib gives a downward stroke of 1.1mm wide, with a side line of 0.32mm.
  2. Gold plated steel 1.5mm calligraphy nib. This nib gives a downward stroke of 1.5mm and a side line of 0.42mm so has the largest line width variation. 

Line widths are approximate and will vary with the quality of the paper and the pressure on the nib. Both these nibs  are smooth and are laser engraved with the CS logo on the nib. 

These replacement nibs fit most of the modern Conway Stewart pens, and are supplied fitted into a black nib holder so you can simply unscrew the barrel of your pen and screw the new nib holder in. Some nib holders have nib rings so there is a drop down requesting whether your pen has silver, gold or no nib rings.

If your Conway Stewart model is not in the drop down list, check to see if it is in the size 5 calligraphy nibs menu which covers the smaller Conway Stewart pens - see HERE . Alternatively, email us for information about the availability.

These replacement nibs do not fit vintage Conway Stewart pens. They are also only suitable for Conway Stewart pens with a cartridge /converter. They are not suitable for Winston pens with the captive converter, or any lever fill pens.
