The vintage Gillott 170 Warranted nib is bronze and stamped England. The 170 is very flexible, but finer and smaller than the Gillott 404. It produces an ultra thin hairline and is great for small lettering.

This nib needs a soft touch and is not for beginners. Used for small to medium x-heights and Spencerian script.

These nibs were discovered when an old warehouse was being renovated and we have been lucky enough to source some. We believe these nibs were produced in the early 1900's, when their use was normal in day to day life and therefore quality was more critical than the products produced today.
