Esterbrook Niblet Fountain Pen - Nouveau Bleu
The Esterbrook Niblet's design philosophy is simple: vintage-inspired charm for the everyday carry (EDC) community. Coming in several core colorways and fitted with a #6 Jowo nib, fans of the Estie will find the Niblet familiar, yet offering something new to love.
Big things come in small packages—and the Niblet proves it. A compact, clipless companion to the Estie, it’s built for those on the go who still value craftsmanship and style. Staying true to Esterbrook’s core design principles, the Niblet offers a bold new way to experience fine writing in a smaller, more portable form.
With its vintage-inspired design, the Niblet is packaged to impress. Each pen comes nestled in a premium retro box that nods to classic stationery sets, complete with a soft felt pen pouch for added protection. Practical as well as stylish, customers will love this bonus "gift" with every purchase! This pen is a stunning mix of blue colors.
Every part of the Niblet was taken into consideration for our customers. For one, this pen model is equipped with a #6 Jowo nib (in contrast to the JR's #5). This makes for a broader writing appeal and interchangeability with collectors' Esties. Further, the Niblet is equipped with a Montervede Mini converter, a slightly smaller converter to match the pen's diminutive size. A black standard international short cartridge is also included.
We do our best to photograph the pens to show how they will appear in person, but due to the nature of the material, there will be some variation in the pattern seen here. This adds an element of uniqueness to the pen, with no two patterns being exactly the same. We cannot honor special requests.
