Twsbi Limited Edition Draco Fountain Pen

This pen is even more beautiful in person. The pink flecks amongst the red in the acrylic give the pen depth and chatoyance, and the rose-gold trim complements the overall colour scheme. Some reviewers have said that the design is reminiscent of dragon fire (Draco = dragon), but I personally see rose petals. Maybe it's a Rorschach thing. The Draco is most like the TWSBI Diamond 580 in that both pens are piston fillers which can be completely disassembled for cleaning, have a similar sturdy weight, and write in the same fashion as they use the same Jowo-made nibs. The Draco is a tad larger in girth than the Diamond 580, although still comfortable to use even with smaller hands (like mine). I was a bit worried that the Draco's grip would be slippery, but the acrylic isn't slippery at all, and the grip also has a slight flare at the bottom. If you like the Diamond 580, you'll like the Draco. Even if you've never owned a TWSBI pen, I'd still recommend the Draco as TWSBI makes such reliable writers, and this limited edition Draco is a beauty. Also very enjoyable purchasing experience from Dromgoole's again!
