Use coupon code SUMMER19 for 30% discount. Get them while they're available! Disclaimer: I have no affiliation with Ensso... just looked on their website after I received the email that the latest drop was cancelled.

I finally got my pen - I live in Italy and I had to wait because of customs and two additional weeks in which it seemed to be missed😲. I like how it looks like. the shape and the minimalist design. I was afraid about it rolling down from the desk, but it was not so difficult to keep an eye on it to avoid such an event. Its name is well chosen: you do not feel it’s weight, it’s a real “piuma”. I got a 1.1 calligraphy nib instead of the broad one I expected based on the drop description. I never had such a type of nib, but it was a nice discovery. I like how it writes and the variation of line you get especially if you write slowly. Maybe a little scratching, but I consider it a sort of vintage feeling. Really satisfied about the purchasing, the only downside is the long waiting we Europeans face after we buy an item on Drop.
