The large, well balanced pen fits the hand perfectly affording an easy grip for the lingers and allows unlimited writing without tiring or cramping. The nib is made in its entirety, from raw gold to the completed point, in Sheaffer laboratories. Rolled, stamped, raised, slit, and ground by expert lapidarian, this nib passes through severe inspections at every stage of its construction. The writing point is a perfect ball of iridium.
